CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS 
     This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent App. No. 62/348,775, filed on Jun. 10, 2016, and U.S. Non-Provisional patent application Ser. No. 15/274,307, filed on Sep. 23, 2016, which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entireties. 
    
    
     TECHNICAL FIELD 
     This relates generally to electronic devices with touch-sensitive surfaces, including but not limited to electronic devices with touch-sensitive surfaces that manage electronic communications. 
     BACKGROUND 
     The use of touch-sensitive surfaces as input devices for computers and other electronic computing devices has increased significantly in recent years. Example touch-sensitive surfaces include touchpads and touch-screen displays. Such surfaces are widely used to manipulate user interface objects on a display. 
     Example manipulations include adjusting the position and/or size of one or more user interface objects or activating buttons or opening files/applications represented by user interface objects, as well as associating metadata with one or more user interface objects or otherwise manipulating user interfaces. Example user interface objects include digital images, video, text, icons, control elements such as buttons and other graphics. A user will, in some circumstances, need to perform such manipulations on user interface objects in a file management program (e.g., Finder from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, Calif.), an image management application (e.g., Aperture, iPhoto, Photos from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, Calif.), a digital content (e.g., videos and music) management application (e.g., iTunes from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, Calif.), a drawing application, a presentation application (e.g., Keynote from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, Calif.), a word processing application (e.g., Pages from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, Calif.), a website creation application (e.g., iWeb from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, Calif.), a disk authoring application (e.g., iDVD from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, Calif.), or a spreadsheet application (e.g., Numbers from Apple Inc. of Cupertino, Calif.). 
     But methods for performing these manipulations are cumbersome and inefficient. For example, using a sequence of mouse based inputs to select one or more user interface objects and perform one or more actions on the selected user interface objects is tedious and creates a significant cognitive burden on a user. In addition, these methods take longer than necessary, thereby wasting energy. This latter consideration is particularly important in battery-operated devices. 
     SUMMARY 
     Accordingly, there is a need for electronic devices with faster, more efficient methods and interfaces for managing electronic communications. Such methods and interfaces optionally complement or replace conventional methods for managing electronic communications. Such methods and interfaces reduce the cognitive burden on a user and produce a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated devices, such methods and interfaces conserve power and increase the time between battery charges. 
     The above deficiencies and other problems associated with user interfaces for electronic devices with touch-sensitive surfaces are reduced or eliminated by the disclosed devices. In some embodiments, the device is a desktop computer. In some embodiments, the device is portable (e.g., a notebook computer, tablet computer, or handheld device). In some embodiments, the device has a touchpad. In some embodiments, the device has a touch-sensitive display (also known as a “touch screen” or “touch-screen display”). In some embodiments, the device has a graphical user interface (GUI), one or more processors, memory and one or more modules, programs or sets of instructions stored in the memory for performing multiple functions. In some embodiments, the user interacts with the GUI primarily through stylus and/or finger contacts and gestures on the touch-sensitive surface. In some embodiments, the functions optionally include image editing, drawing, presenting, word processing, website creating, disk authoring, spreadsheet making, game playing, telephoning, video conferencing, e-mailing, instant messaging, workout support, digital photographing, digital videoing, web browsing, digital music playing, and/or digital video playing. Executable instructions for performing these functions are, optionally, included in a non-transitory computer readable storage medium or other computer program product configured for execution by one or more processors.

The method also includes detecting an input, via the input device, corresponding to selection of a respective row from among the plurality of rows in the inbox view. In response to detecting the input, and in accordance with a determination that the respective row corresponds to the first row, the method further includes displaying, on the display, additional information corresponding to two or more messages from the conversation of related messages that are represented by the first row. In response to detecting the input, and in accordance with a determination that the respective row corresponds to the second row, the method further includes displaying, on the display, additional information corresponding to two or more messages from among the plurality of messages that are represented by the second row, including a first message and a second message that both satisfy the first category criterion but not part of a same conversation.

Device  100  includes memory  102  (which optionally includes one or more computer readable storage mediums), memory controller  122 , one or more processing units (CPUs)  120 , peripherals interface  118 , RF circuitry  108 , audio circuitry  110 , speaker  111 , microphone  113 , input/output (I/O) subsystem  106 , other input or control devices  116 , and external port  124 . Device  100  optionally includes one or more optical sensors  164 . Device  100  optionally includes one or more intensity sensors  165  for detecting intensity of contacts on device  100  (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface such as touch-sensitive display system  112  of device  100 ). Device  100  optionally includes one or more tactile output generators  163  for generating tactile outputs on device  100  (e.g., generating tactile outputs on a touch-sensitive surface such as touch-sensitive display system  112  of device  100  or touchpad  355  of device  300 ). These components optionally communicate over one or more communication buses or signal lines  103 . 
     As used in the specification and claims, the term “tactile output” refers to physical displacement of a device relative to a previous position of the device, physical displacement of a component (e.g., a touch-sensitive surface) of a device relative to another component (e.g., housing) of the device, or displacement of the component relative to a center of mass of the device that will be detected by a user with the user&#39;s sense of touch. For example, in situations where the device or the component of the device is in contact with a surface of a user that is sensitive to touch (e.g., a finger, palm, or other part of a user&#39;s hand), the tactile output generated by the physical displacement will be interpreted by the user as a tactile sensation corresponding to a perceived change in physical characteristics of the device or the component of the device. For example, movement of a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., a touch-sensitive display or trackpad) is, optionally, interpreted by the user as a “down click” or “up click” of a physical actuator button. In some cases, a user will feel a tactile sensation such as an “down click” or “up click” even when there is no movement of a physical actuator button associated with the touch-sensitive surface that is physically pressed (e.g., displaced) by the user&#39;s movements. As another example, movement of the touch-sensitive surface is, optionally, interpreted or sensed by the user as “roughness” of the touch-sensitive surface, even when there is no change in smoothness of the touch-sensitive surface. While such interpretations of touch by a user will be subject to the individualized sensory perceptions of the user, there are many sensory perceptions of touch that are common to a large majority of users. Thus, when a tactile output is described as corresponding to a particular sensory perception of a user (e.g., an “up click,” a “down click,” “roughness”), unless otherwise stated, the generated tactile output corresponds to physical displacement of the device or a component thereof that will generate the described sensory perception for a typical (or average) user.

Display controller  156  receives and/or sends electrical signals from/to touch-sensitive display system  112 . Touch-sensitive display system  112  displays visual output to the user. The visual output optionally includes graphics, text, icons, video, and any combination thereof (collectively termed “graphics”). In some embodiments, some or all of the visual output corresponds to user-interface objects. 
     Touch-sensitive display system  112  has a touch-sensitive surface, sensor or set of sensors that accepts input from the user based on haptic/tactile contact. Touch-sensitive display system  112  and display controller  156  (along with any associated modules and/or sets of instructions in memory  102 ) detect contact (and any movement or breaking of the contact) on touch-sensitive display system  112  and converts the detected contact into interaction with user-interface objects (e.g., one or more soft keys, icons, web pages or images) that are displayed on touch-sensitive display system  112 . In an example embodiment, a point of contact between touch-sensitive display system  112  and the user corresponds to a finger of the user or a stylus. 
     Touch-sensitive display system  112  optionally uses LCD (liquid crystal display) technology, LPD (light emitting polymer display) technology, or LED (light emitting diode) technology, although other display technologies are used in other embodiments.

The user optionally makes contact with touch-sensitive display system  112  using any suitable object or appendage, such as a stylus, a finger, and so forth. In some embodiments, the user interface is designed to work with finger-based contacts and gestures, which can be less precise than stylus-based input due to the larger area of contact of a finger on the touch screen. In some embodiments, the device translates the rough finger-based input into a precise pointer/cursor position or command for performing the actions desired by the user. 
     In some embodiments, in addition to the touch screen, device  100  optionally includes a touchpad (not shown) for activating or deactivating particular functions.

     Contact/motion module  130  optionally detects contact with touch-sensitive display system  112  (in conjunction with display controller  156 ) and other touch-sensitive devices (e.g., a touchpad or physical click wheel). Contact/motion module  130  includes software components for performing various operations related to detection of contact (e.g., by a finger or by a stylus), such as determining if contact has occurred (e.g., detecting a finger-down event), determining an intensity of the contact (e.g., the force or pressure of the contact or a substitute for the force or pressure of the contact), determining if there is movement of the contact and tracking the movement across the touch-sensitive surface (e.g., detecting one or more finger-dragging events), and determining if the contact has ceased (e.g., detecting a finger-up event or a break in contact). Contact/motion module  130  receives contact data from the touch-sensitive surface. Determining movement of the point of contact, which is represented by a series of contact data, optionally includes determining speed (magnitude), velocity (magnitude and direction), and/or an acceleration (a change in magnitude and/or direction) of the point of contact. These operations are, optionally, applied to single contacts (e.g., one finger contacts or stylus contacts) or to multiple simultaneous contacts (e.g., “multitouch”/multiple finger contacts and/or stylus contacts). In some embodiments, contact/motion module  130  and display controller  156  detect contact on a touchpad. 
     Contact/motion module  130  optionally detects a gesture input by a user. Different gestures on the touch-sensitive surface have different contact patterns (e.g., different motions, timings, and/or intensities of detected contacts). Thus, a gesture is, optionally, detected by detecting a particular contact pattern. For example, detecting a finger tap gesture includes detecting a finger-down event followed by detecting a finger-up (lift off) event at the same position (or substantially the same position) as the finger-down event (e.g., at the position of an icon). As another example, detecting a finger swipe gesture on the touch-sensitive surface includes detecting a finger-down event followed by detecting one or more finger-dragging events, and subsequently followed by detecting a finger-up (lift off) event. Similarly, tap, swipe, drag, and other gestures are optionally detected for a stylus by detecting a particular contact pattern for the stylus.

     Each of the above identified modules and applications correspond to a set of executable instructions for performing one or more functions described above and the methods described in this application (e.g., the computer-implemented methods and other information processing methods described herein). These modules (i.e., sets of instructions) need not be implemented as separate software programs, procedures or modules, and thus various subsets of these modules are, optionally, combined or otherwise re-arranged in various embodiments. In some embodiments, memory  102  optionally stores a subset of the modules and data structures identified above. Furthermore, memory  102  optionally stores additional modules and data structures not described above. 
     In some embodiments, device  100  is a device where operation of a predefined set of functions on the device is performed exclusively through a touch screen and/or a touchpad. By using a touch screen and/or a touchpad as the primary input control device for operation of device  100 , the number of physical input control devices (such as push buttons, dials, and the like) on device  100  is, optionally, reduced. 
     The predefined set of functions that are performed exclusively through a touch screen and/or a touchpad optionally include navigation between user interfaces. In some embodiments, the touchpad, when touched by the user, navigates device  100  to a main, home, or root menu from any user interface that is displayed on device  100 . In such embodiments, a “menu button” is implemented using a touchpad. In some other embodiments, the menu button is a physical push button or other physical input control device instead of a touchpad. 
       FIG. 1B  is a block diagram illustrating example components for event handling in accordance with some embodiments. In some embodiments, memory  102  (in  FIG. 1A ) or  370  ( FIG. 3 ) includes event sorter  170  (e.g., in operating system  126 ) and a respective application  136 - 1  (e.g., any of the aforementioned applications  136 ,  137 - 155 ,  380 - 390 ). 
     Event sorter  170  receives event information and determines the application  136 - 1  and application view  191  of application  136 - 1  to which to deliver the event information. Event sorter  170  includes event monitor  171  and event dispatcher module  174 . In some embodiments, application  136 - 1  includes application internal state  192 , which indicates the current application view(s) displayed on touch-sensitive display system  112  when the application is active or executing. In some embodiments, device/global internal state  157  is used by event sorter  170  to determine which application(s) is (are) currently active, and application internal state  192  is used by event sorter  170  to determine application views  191  to which to deliver event information. 
     In some embodiments, application internal state  192  includes additional information, such as one or more of: resume information to be used when application  136 - 1  resumes execution, user interface state information that indicates information being displayed or that is ready for display by application  136 - 1 , a state queue for enabling the user to go back to a prior state or view of application  136 - 1 , and a redo/undo queue of previous actions taken by the user. 
     Event monitor  171  receives event information from peripherals interface  118 . Event information includes information about a sub-event (e.g., a user touch on touch-sensitive display system  112 , as part of a multi-touch gesture). Peripherals interface  118  transmits information it receives from I/O subsystem  106  or a sensor, such as proximity sensor  166 , accelerometer(s)  167 , gyroscope(s)  168 , magnetometer(s)  169 , and/or microphone  113  (through audio circuitry  110 ). Information that peripherals interface  118  receives from I/O subsystem  106  includes information from touch-sensitive display system  112  or a touch-sensitive surface. 
     In some embodiments, event monitor  171  sends requests to the peripherals interface  118  at predetermined intervals. In response, peripherals interface  118  transmits event information. In other embodiments, peripheral interface  118  transmits event information only when there is a significant event (e.g., receiving an input above a predetermined noise threshold and/or for more than a predetermined duration). 
     In some embodiments, event sorter  170  also includes a hit view determination module  172  and/or an active event recognizer determination module  173 . 
     Hit view determination module  172  provides software procedures for determining where a sub-event has taken place within one or more views, when touch-sensitive display system  112  displays more than one view. Views are made up of controls and other elements that a user can see on the display. 
     Another aspect of the user interface associated with an application is a set of views, sometimes herein called application views or user interface windows, in which information is displayed and touch-based gestures occur. The application views (of a respective application) in which a touch is detected optionally correspond to programmatic levels within a programmatic or view hierarchy of the application. For example, the lowest level view in which a touch is detected is, optionally, called the hit view, and the set of events that are recognized as proper inputs are, optionally, determined based, at least in part, on the hit view of the initial touch that begins a touch-based gesture. 
     Hit view determination module  172  receives information related to sub-events of a touch-based gesture. When an application has multiple views organized in a hierarchy, hit view determination module  172  identifies a hit view as the lowest view in the hierarchy which should handle the sub-event. In most circumstances, the hit view is the lowest level view in which an initiating sub-event occurs (i.e., the first sub-event in the sequence of sub-events that form an event or potential event). Once the hit view is identified by the hit view determination module, the hit view typically receives all sub-events related to the same touch or input source for which it was identified as the hit view. 
     Active event recognizer determination module  173  determines which view or views within a view hierarchy should receive a particular sequence of sub-events. In some embodiments, active event recognizer determination module  173  determines that only the hit view should receive a particular sequence of sub-events. In other embodiments, active event recognizer determination module  173  determines that all views that include the physical location of a sub-event are actively involved views, and therefore determines that all actively involved views should receive a particular sequence of sub-events. In other embodiments, even if touch sub-events were entirely confined to the area associated with one particular view, views higher in the hierarchy would still remain as actively involved views. 
     Event dispatcher module  174  dispatches the event information to an event recognizer (e.g., event recognizer  180 ). In embodiments including active event recognizer determination module  173 , event dispatcher module  174  delivers the event information to an event recognizer determined by active event recognizer determination module  173 . In some embodiments, event dispatcher module  174  stores in an event queue the event information, which is retrieved by a respective event receiver module  182 . 
     In some embodiments, operating system  126  includes event sorter  170 . Alternatively, application  136 - 1  includes event sorter  170 . In yet other embodiments, event sorter  170  is a stand-alone module, or a part of another module stored in memory  102 , such as contact/motion module  130 . 
     In some embodiments, application  136 - 1  includes a plurality of event handlers  190  and one or more application views  191 , each of which includes instructions for handling touch events that occur within a respective view of the application&#39;s user interface. Each application view  191  of the application  136 - 1  includes one or more event recognizers  180 . Typically, a respective application view  191  includes a plurality of event recognizers  180 . In other embodiments, one or more of event recognizers  180  are part of a separate module, such as a user interface kit (not shown) or a higher level object from which application  136 - 1  inherits methods and other properties. In some embodiments, a respective event handler  190  includes one or more of: data updater  176 , object updater  177 , GUI updater  178 , and/or event data  179  received from event sorter  170 . Event handler  190  optionally utilizes or calls data updater  176 , object updater  177  or GUI updater  178  to update the application internal state  192 . Alternatively, one or more of the application views  191  includes one or more respective event handlers  190 . Also, in some embodiments, one or more of data updater  176 , object updater  177 , and GUI updater  178  are included in a respective application view  191 . 
     A respective event recognizer  180  receives event information (e.g., event data  179 ) from event sorter  170 , and identifies an event from the event information. Event recognizer  180  includes event receiver  182  and event comparator  184 . In some embodiments, event recognizer  180  also includes at least a subset of: metadata  183 , and event delivery instructions  188  (which optionally include sub-event delivery instructions). 
     Event receiver  182  receives event information from event sorter  170 . The event information includes information about a sub-event, for example, a touch or a touch movement. Depending on the sub-event, the event information also includes additional information, such as location of the sub-event. When the sub-event concerns motion of a touch, the event information optionally also includes speed and direction of the sub-event. In some embodiments, events include rotation of the device from one orientation to another (e.g., from a portrait orientation to a landscape orientation, or vice versa), and the event information includes corresponding information about the current orientation (also called device attitude) of the device. 
     Event comparator  184  compares the event information to predefined event or sub-event definitions and, based on the comparison, determines an event or sub-event, or determines or updates the state of an event or sub-event. In some embodiments, event comparator  184  includes event definitions  186 . Event definitions  186  contain definitions of events (e.g., predefined sequences of sub-events), for example, event  1  ( 187 - 1 ), event  2  ( 187 - 2 ), and others. In some embodiments, sub-events in an event  187  include, for example, touch begin, touch end, touch movement, touch cancellation, and multiple touching. In one example, the definition for event  1  ( 187 - 1 ) is a double tap on a displayed object. The double tap, for example, comprises a first touch (touch begin) on the displayed object for a predetermined phase, a first lift-off (touch end) for a predetermined phase, a second touch (touch begin) on the displayed object for a predetermined phase, and a second lift-off (touch end) for a predetermined phase. In another example, the definition for event  2  ( 187 - 2 ) is a dragging on a displayed object. The dragging, for example, comprises a touch (or contact) on the displayed object for a predetermined phase, a movement of the touch across touch-sensitive display system  112 , and lift-off of the touch (touch end). In some embodiments, the event also includes information for one or more associated event handlers  190 . 
     In some embodiments, event definition  187  includes a definition of an event for a respective user-interface object. In some embodiments, event comparator  184  performs a hit test to determine which user-interface object is associated with a sub-event. For example, in an application view in which three user-interface objects are displayed on touch-sensitive display system  112 , when a touch is detected on touch-sensitive display system  112 , event comparator  184  performs a hit test to determine which of the three user-interface objects is associated with the touch (sub-event). If each displayed object is associated with a respective event handler  190 , the event comparator uses the result of the hit test to determine which event handler  190  should be activated. For example, event comparator  184  selects an event handler associated with the sub-event and the object triggering the hit test. 
     In some embodiments, the definition for a respective event  187  also includes delayed actions that delay delivery of the event information until after it has been determined whether the sequence of sub-events does or does not correspond to the event recognizer&#39;s event type. 
     When a respective event recognizer  180  determines that the series of sub-events do not match any of the events in event definitions  186 , the respective event recognizer  180  enters an event impossible, event failed, or event ended state, after which it disregards subsequent sub-events of the touch-based gesture. In this situation, other event recognizers, if any, that remain active for the hit view continue to track and process sub-events of an ongoing touch-based gesture. 
     In some embodiments, a respective event recognizer  180  includes metadata  183  with configurable properties, flags, and/or lists that indicate how the event delivery system should perform sub-event delivery to actively involved event recognizers. In some embodiments, metadata  183  includes configurable properties, flags, and/or lists that indicate how event recognizers interact, or are enabled to interact, with one another. In some embodiments, metadata  183  includes configurable properties, flags, and/or lists that indicate whether sub-events are delivered to varying levels in the view or programmatic hierarchy. 
     In some embodiments, a respective event recognizer  180  activates event handler  190  associated with an event when one or more particular sub-events of an event are recognized. In some embodiments, a respective event recognizer  180  delivers event information associated with the event to event handler  190 . Activating an event handler  190  is distinct from sending (and deferred sending) sub-events to a respective hit view. In some embodiments, event recognizer  180  throws a flag associated with the recognized event, and event handler  190  associated with the flag catches the flag and performs a predefined process. 
     In some embodiments, event delivery instructions  188  include sub-event delivery instructions that deliver event information about a sub-event without activating an event handler. Instead, the sub-event delivery instructions deliver event information to event handlers associated with the series of sub-events or to actively involved views. Event handlers associated with the series of sub-events or with actively involved views receive the event information and perform a predetermined process. 
     In some embodiments, data updater  176  creates and updates data used in application  136 - 1 . For example, data updater  176  updates the telephone number used in contacts module  137 , or stores a video file used in video player module  145 . In some embodiments, object updater  177  creates and updates objects used in application  136 - 1 . For example, object updater  177  creates a new user-interface object or updates the position of a user-interface object. GUI updater  178  updates the GUI. For example, GUI updater  178  prepares display information and sends it to graphics module  132  for display on a touch-sensitive display. 
     In some embodiments, event handler(s)  190  includes or has access to data updater  176 , object updater  177 , and GUI updater  178 . In some embodiments, data updater  176 , object updater  177 , and GUI updater  178  are included in a single module of a respective application  136 - 1  or application view  191 . In other embodiments, they are included in two or more software modules. 
     It shall be understood that the foregoing discussion regarding event handling of user touches on touch-sensitive displays also applies to other forms of user inputs to operate multifunction devices  100  with input-devices, not all of which are initiated on touch screens. For example, mouse movement and mouse button presses, optionally coordinated with single or multiple keyboard presses or holds; contact movements such as taps, drags, scrolls, etc., on touch-pads; pen stylus inputs; movement of the device; oral instructions; detected eye movements; biometric inputs; and/or any combination thereof are optionally utilized as inputs corresponding to sub-events which define an event to be recognized. 
       FIG. 2  illustrates a portable multifunction device  100  having a touch screen (e.g., touch-sensitive display system  112 ,  FIG. 1A ) in accordance with some embodiments. The touch screen optionally displays one or more graphics within user interface (UI)  200 . In this embodiment, as well as others described below, a user is enabled to select one or more of the graphics by making a gesture on the graphics, for example, with one or more fingers  202  (not drawn to scale in the figure) or one or more styluses  203  (not drawn to scale in the figure). In some embodiments, selection of one or more graphics occurs when the user breaks contact with the one or more graphics. In some embodiments, the gesture optionally includes one or more taps, one or more swipes (from left to right, right to left, upward and/or downward) and/or a rolling of a finger (from right to left, left to right, upward and/or downward) that has made contact with device  100 . In some implementations or circumstances, inadvertent contact with a graphic does not select the graphic. For example, a swipe gesture that sweeps over an application icon optionally does not select the corresponding application when the gesture corresponding to selection is a tap. 
     Device  100  optionally also includes one or more physical buttons, such as “home” or menu button  204 . As described previously, menu button  204  is, optionally, used to navigate to any application  136  in a set of applications that are, optionally executed on device  100 . Alternatively, in some embodiments, the menu button is implemented as a soft key in a GUI displayed on the touch-screen display. 
     In some embodiments, device  100  includes the touch-screen display, menu button  204 , push button  206  for powering the device on/off and locking the device, volume adjustment button(s)  208 , Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card slot  210 , head set jack  212 , and docking/charging external port  124 . Push button  206  is, optionally, used to turn the power on/off on the device by depressing the button and holding the button in the depressed state for a predefined time interval; to lock the device by depressing the button and releasing the button before the predefined time interval has elapsed; and/or to unlock the device or initiate an unlock process. In some embodiments, device  100  also accepts verbal input for activation or deactivation of some functions through microphone  113 . Device  100  also, optionally, includes one or more contact intensity sensors  165  for detecting intensity of contacts on touch-sensitive display system  112  and/or one or more tactile output generators  163  for generating tactile outputs for a user of device  100 . 
       FIG. 3  is a block diagram of an example multifunction device with a display and a touch-sensitive surface in accordance with some embodiments. Device  300  need not be portable. In some embodiments, device  300  is a laptop computer, a desktop computer, a tablet computer, a multimedia player device, a navigation device, an educational device (such as a child&#39;s learning toy), a gaming system, or a control device (e.g., a home or industrial controller). Device  300  typically includes one or more processing units (CPU&#39;s)  310 , one or more network or other communications interfaces  360 , memory  370 , and one or more communication buses  320  for interconnecting these components. Communication buses  320  optionally include circuitry (sometimes called a chipset) that interconnects and controls communications between system components. Device  300  includes input/output (I/O) interface  330  comprising display  340 , which is typically a touch-screen display. I/O interface  330  also optionally includes a keyboard and/or mouse (or other pointing device)  350  and touchpad  355 , tactile output generator  357  for generating tactile outputs on device  300  (e.g., similar to tactile output generator(s)  163  described above with reference to  FIG. 1A ), sensors  359  (e.g., touch-sensitive, optical, contact intensity, proximity, acceleration, attitude, and/or magnetic sensors similar to sensors  112 ,  164 ,  165 ,  166 ,  167 ,  168 , and  169  described above with reference to  FIG. 1A ). Memory  370  includes high-speed random access memory, such as DRAM, SRAM, DDR RAM or other random access solid state memory devices; and optionally includes non-volatile memory, such as one or more magnetic disk storage devices, optical disk storage devices, flash memory devices, or other non-volatile solid state storage devices. Memory  370  optionally includes one or more storage devices remotely located from CPU(s)  310 . In some embodiments, memory  370  stores programs, modules, and data structures analogous to the programs, modules, and data structures stored in memory  102  of portable multifunction device  100  ( FIG. 1A ), or a subset thereof. Furthermore, memory  370  optionally stores additional programs, modules, and data structures not present in memory  102  of portable multifunction device  100 . For example, memory  370  of device  300  optionally stores drawing module  380 , presentation module  382 , word processing module  384 , website creation module  386 , disk authoring module  388 , and/or spreadsheet module  390 , while memory  102  of portable multifunction device  100  ( FIG. 1A ) optionally does not store these modules. 
     Each of the above identified elements in  FIG. 3  are, optionally, stored in one or more of the previously mentioned memory devices. Each of the above identified modules corresponds to a set of instructions for performing a function described above. The above identified modules or programs (i.e., sets of instructions) need not be implemented as separate software programs, procedures or modules, and thus various subsets of these modules are, optionally, combined or otherwise re-arranged in various embodiments. In some embodiments, memory  370  optionally stores a subset of the modules and data structures identified above. Furthermore, memory  370  optionally stores additional modules and data structures not described above. 
     Attention is now directed towards embodiments of user interfaces (“UI”) that are, optionally, implemented on portable multifunction device  100 . 
       FIG. 4A  illustrates an example user interface for a menu of applications on portable multifunction device  100  in accordance with some embodiments. Similar user interfaces are, optionally, implemented on device  300 . In some embodiments, user interface  400  includes the following elements, or a subset or superset thereof:
     Signal strength indicator(s)  402  for wireless communication(s), such as cellular and Wi-Fi signals;   Time  404 ;   Bluetooth indicator  405 ;   Battery status indicator  406 ;   Tray  408  with icons for frequently used applications, such as:

       Icons for other applications, such as:
       Icon  424  for IM module  141 , labeled “Text”;   Icon  426  for calendar module  148 , labeled “Calendar”;   Icon  428  for image management module  144 , labeled “Photos”;   Icon  430  for camera module  143 , labeled “Camera”;   Icon  432  for online video module  155 , labeled “Online Video”;   Icon  434  for stocks widget  149 - 2 , labeled “Stocks”;   Icon  436  for map module  154 , labeled “Map”;   Icon  438  for weather widget  149 - 1 , labeled “Weather”;   Icon  440  for alarm clock widget  169 - 6 , labeled “Clock”;   Icon  442  for workout support module  142 , labeled “Workout Support”;   Icon  444  for notes module  153 , labeled “Notes”; and   Icon  446  for a settings application or module, which provides access to settings for device  100  and its various applications  136 .   
       

     It should be noted that the icon labels illustrated in  FIG. 4A  are merely examples. For example, in some embodiments, icon  422  for video and music player module  152  is labeled “Music” or “Music Player.” Other labels are, optionally, used for various application icons. In some embodiments, a label for a respective application icon includes a name of an application corresponding to the respective application icon. In some embodiments, a label for a particular application icon is distinct from a name of an application corresponding to the particular application icon. 
       FIG. 4B  illustrates an example user interface on a device (e.g., device  300 ,  FIG. 3 ) with a touch-sensitive surface  451  (e.g., a tablet or touchpad  355 ,  FIG. 3 ) that is separate from the display  450 . Device  300  also, optionally, includes one or more contact intensity sensors (e.g., one or more of sensors  359 ) for detecting intensity of contacts on touch-sensitive surface  451  and/or one or more tactile output generators  359  for generating tactile outputs for a user of device  300 . 
       FIG. 4B  illustrates an example user interface on a device (e.g., device  300 ,  FIG. 3 ) with a touch-sensitive surface  451  (e.g., a tablet or touchpad  355 ,  FIG. 3 ) that is separate from the display  450 . Although many of the examples that follow will be given with reference to inputs on touch screen display  112  (where the touch sensitive surface and the display are combined), in some embodiments, the device detects inputs on a touch-sensitive surface that is separate from the display, as shown in  FIG. 4B . In some embodiments, the touch-sensitive surface (e.g.,  451  in  FIG. 4B ) has a primary axis (e.g.,  452  in  FIG. 4B ) that corresponds to a primary axis (e.g.,  453  in  FIG. 4B ) on the display (e.g.,  450 ). In accordance with these embodiments, the device detects contacts (e.g.,  460  and  462  in  FIG. 4B ) with the touch-sensitive surface  451  at locations that correspond to respective locations on the display (e.g., in  FIG. 4B, 460  corresponds to  468  and  462  corresponds to  470 ). In this way, user inputs (e.g., contacts  460  and  462 , and movements thereof) detected by the device on the touch-sensitive surface (e.g.,  451  in  FIG. 4B ) are used by the device to manipulate the user interface on the display (e.g.,  450  in  FIG. 4B ) of the multifunction device when the touch-sensitive surface is separate from the display. It should be understood that similar methods are, optionally, used for other user interfaces described herein. 
     Additionally, while the following examples are given primarily with reference to finger inputs (e.g., finger contacts, finger tap gestures, finger swipe gestures, etc.), it should be understood that, in some embodiments, one or more of the finger inputs are replaced with input from another input device (e.g., a mouse based input or a stylus input). For example, a swipe gesture is, optionally, replaced with a mouse click (e.g., instead of a contact) followed by movement of the cursor along the path of the swipe (e.g., instead of movement of the contact). As another example, a tap gesture is, optionally, replaced with a mouse click while the cursor is located over the location of the tap gesture (e.g., instead of detection of the contact followed by ceasing to detect the contact). Similarly, when multiple user inputs are simultaneously detected, it should be understood that multiple computer mice are, optionally, used simultaneously, or a mouse and finger contacts are, optionally, used simultaneously. 
     As used herein, the term “focus selector” refers to an input element that indicates a current part of a user interface with which a user is interacting. In some implementations that include a cursor or other location marker, the cursor acts as a “focus selector,” so that when an input (e.g., a press input) is detected on a touch-sensitive surface (e.g., touchpad  355  in  FIG. 3  or touch-sensitive surface  451  in  FIG. 4B ) while the cursor is over a particular user interface element (e.g., a button, window, slider or other user interface element), the particular user interface element is adjusted in accordance with the detected input. In some implementations that include a touch-screen display (e.g., touch-sensitive display system  112  in  FIG. 1A  or the touch screen in  FIG. 4A ) that enables direct interaction with user interface elements on the touch-screen display, a detected contact on the touch-screen acts as a “focus selector,” so that when an input (e.g., a press input by the contact) is detected on the touch-screen display at a location of a particular user interface element (e.g., a button, window, slider or other user interface element), the particular user interface element is adjusted in accordance with the detected input. In some implementations, focus is moved from one region of a user interface to another region of the user interface without corresponding movement of a cursor or movement of a contact on a touch-screen display (e.g., by using a tab key or arrow keys to move focus from one button to another button); in these implementations, the focus selector moves in accordance with movement of focus between different regions of the user interface. Without regard to the specific form taken by the focus selector, the focus selector is generally the user interface element (or contact on a touch-screen display) that is controlled by the user so as to communicate the user&#39;s intended interaction with the user interface (e.g., by indicating, to the device, the element of the user interface with which the user is intending to interact). For example, the location of a focus selector (e.g., a cursor, a contact, or a selection box) over a respective button while a press input is detected on the touch-sensitive surface (e.g., a touchpad or touch screen) will indicate that the user is intending to activate the respective button (as opposed to other user interface elements shown on a display of the device). 
     User Interfaces and Associated Processes 
     Attention is now directed toward embodiments of user interfaces (“UI”) and associated processes that may be implemented on an electronic device, such as a portable multifunction device  100  with a display, a touch-sensitive surface, and optionally one or more sensors to detect intensity of contacts with the touch-sensitive surface, or a device  300  with a one or more processors, non-transitory memory, a display, and an input device. 
       FIGS. 5A-5R  illustrate example user interfaces for managing electronic communications in accordance with some embodiments. The user interfaces in these figures are used to illustrate the processes described below, including the processes in  FIGS. 8A-8C and 9A-9C . Although some of the examples which follow will be given with reference to inputs on a touch-screen display (where the touch-sensitive surface and the display are combined), in some embodiments, the device detects inputs on a touch-sensitive surface  451  that is separate from the display  450 , as shown in  FIG. 4B . 
       FIG. 5A  illustrates displaying a folder view  502  associated with an inbox folder within the display area  501  of the device  100 . For example, the inbox folder is one of a plurality of folders associated with an electronic mail (email) and/or messaging application. In some embodiments, the inbox folder includes electronic communications to and/or from the user of the device  100 . For example, the electronic communications include email conversations, email messages, instant message conversations, instant messages, SMSs, MMSs, talk-to-text, and/or the like. In some embodiments, the content displayed within the display area  501  corresponds to a grouping of electronic communications such as a specific folder, category, or tag. In some embodiments, the user of the device  100  is able to select between different groupings of electronic communications such as folders, categories, or tags. 
     As shown in  FIG. 5A , the inbox folder view  502  includes: a back affordance  516   a , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the inbox folder view  502  to be replaced with a previous view or pane; and an edit affordance  516   b  for marking, moving, and archiving electronic communications in the inbox folder. As shown in  FIG. 5A , the inbox folder view  502  also includes: a filter affordance  518   a , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the messages, conversations, and/or bundles associated with the inbox folder to be filtered according to a set of filter criteria or a filter pane to be displayed; and a draft affordance  518   b , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the inbox folder view  502  to be replaced with an interface for drafting a new message. 
     As shown in  FIG. 5A , the inbox folder view  502  further includes a plurality of rows in a condensed view mode. In some embodiments, a row represents a plurality of messages (e.g., electronic communications) that satisfy one or more conversation criteria (e.g., a conversation with one or more messages with similar subjects, content, senders, recipients, and/or the like). In some embodiments, a row represents a plurality of messages (e.g., electronic communications) that satisfy a category criterion (e.g., a bundle of promotional, finance, social activity, etc. messages). In some embodiments, a row represents a single message. 
     In  FIG. 5A , the first row corresponds to a conversation  504   a  (e.g., with two messages). The first row includes: a timestamp of a most recently received message in the conversation  504   a ; the sender(s) of messages in the conversation  504   a ; the subject of the conversation  504   a  (e.g., “Apple Picking”); a blurb/snapshot of the contents of the conversation  504   a ; and a view mode affordance  514   a , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the first row to change from the condensed view mode to an expanded view mode. For example, the double chevrons associated with the view mode affordance  514   a  indicate that the conversation  504   a  includes two or more messages. For example, the horizontal orientation of the chevrons associated with the view mode affordance  514   a  indicate that the first row associated with the conversation  504   a  is displayed in the condensed view mode. The first row also includes an icon  519  indicating that the conversation  504   a  includes one or more unread messages. 
     In  FIG. 5A , the second row corresponds to a bundle of messages  504   b  associated with an updates criterion  515 . The second row includes: a timestamp of a most recently received message in the bundle of messages  504   b ; the sender(s) of messages in the bundle of messages  504   b ; and a view mode affordance  514   b , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the second row to change from the condensed view mode to an expanded view mode. 
     In  FIG. 5A , the second row also includes a messages affordance  517  indicating the total number of messages included in the bundle of messages  504   b  received today and the number of unread messages included in the bundle of messages  504   b . In some embodiments, when activated (e.g., with a contact), the messages affordance  517  causes display of all messages included in the bundle of messages  504   b  (e.g.,  FIGS. 5O-5P ). In some embodiments, when activated (e.g., with a contact), the messages affordance  517  causes display of the unread messages included in the bundle of messages  504   b . For example, the double chevrons associated with the view mode affordance  514   b  indicate that the bundle of messages  504   b  includes two or more messages. For example, the horizontal orientation of the chevrons associated with the view mode affordance  514   b  indicate that the second row associated with the bundle of messages  504   b  is displayed in the condensed view mode. The second row further includes an icon  519  indicating that the bundle of messages  504   b  includes one or more unread messages. 
     As shown in  FIG. 5A , the third row corresponds to a conversation  504   c  (e.g., with one message), and the fourth row corresponds to a conversation  504   d  (e.g., with one message). The third and fourth rows are similar to and adapted from the first row. As such, the third and fourth rows are not described for the sake of brevity. In  FIG. 5A , the third row includes a view mode affordance  514   c , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the third row to change from the condensed view mode to an expanded view mode. For example, the single chevron associated with the view mode affordance  514   c  indicates that the conversation  504   c  includes a single message. For example, the horizontal orientation of the chevron associated with the view mode affordance  514   c  indicates that the third row associated with the conversation  504   c  is displayed in the condensed view mode. 
       FIGS. 5A-5B  illustrate a sequence in which additional information (e.g., the conversation view  532 ) for a first plurality of messages that satisfy one or more conversation criteria (e.g., the conversation  504   a ) replaces display of an inbox folder view  502 .  FIG. 5A  also illustrates detecting a contact  520  at a location corresponding to the view mode affordance  514   a.    
     In some embodiments, in response to selection of the view mode affordance  514   a  (e.g.,  FIG. 5A ), the first row associated with the conversation  504   a  changes from the condensed view to an expanded view with additional information corresponding to two or more messages from the conversation  504   a  of related messages that are represented by the first row. In some embodiments, in response to selection of a view mode affordance in the first row displayed in the inbox folder region/pane (e.g.,  FIG. 6A ), additional information corresponding to two or more messages from the conversation of related messages that are represented by the first row is displayed. In some embodiments, the additional information is displayed in a conversation view  532  that replaces the inbox folder view  502  (e.g.,  FIG. 5B ). In some embodiments, the additional information is displayed inline in the inbox folder view  502  (e.g.,  FIG. 5C ). In some embodiments, the additional information is displayed in an adjacent content region/pane (e.g.,  FIG. 6B ). 
       FIG. 5B  illustrates replacing display of the inbox folder view  502  with a conversation view  532  with messages  534   a  and  534   b  associated with the conversation  504   a  in response to selection of the view mode affordance  514   a  in  FIG. 5A . As such, the first row associated with the conversation  504   a  changes from the condensed view in  FIG. 5A  to the expanded view in  FIG. 5B  with additional information corresponding to two or more messages from the conversation  504   a.    
     As shown in  FIG. 5B , the conversation view  532  includes a plurality of rows in the condensed view mode. For example, in  FIG. 5B , each of the rows corresponds to a message included in the conversation  504   a . For example, the conversation  504   a  includes messages  534   a  and  534   b , which satisfy the one or more conversation criteria (e.g., similar subjects, content, senders, recipients, and/or the like). 
     In  FIG. 5B , the first row corresponds to the message  534   a . The first row includes: a timestamp for the message  534   a ; the sender of the message  534   a ; the subject of the message  534   a ; a blurb/snapshot of the contents of the message  534 ; and a view mode affordance  544   a , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the first row to change from the condensed view mode to an expanded view mode (e.g., showing the full contents of the message  534   a ). The first row also includes an icon  519  indicating that the message  534   a  is unread. 
     In  FIG. 5B , the second row corresponds to the message  534   b . The second row includes: a timestamp for the message  534   b ; the sender of the message  534   b ; the subject of the message  534   b ; a blurb/snapshot of the contents of the message  534   b ; and a view mode affordance  544   b , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the first row to change from the condensed view mode to an expanded view mode (e.g., showing the full contents of the message  534   b ). The second row also includes an icon  519  indicating that the message  534   b  is unread. 
       FIG. 5A  and  FIG. 5C  illustrate another sequence in which additional information for a first plurality of messages that satisfy one or more conversation criteria (e.g., the conversation  504   a ) is displayed inline in the inbox folder view  502 .  FIG. 5C  illustrates displaying messages  534   a  and  534   b  associated with the conversation  504   a  inline in the inbox folder view  502  in response to selection of the view mode affordance  514   a  in  FIG. 5A . As such, the first row associated with the conversation  504   a  changes from the condensed view in  FIG. 5A  to the expanded view in  FIG. 5C  with additional information corresponding to two or more messages from the conversation  504   a.    
       FIG. 5C  is similar to and adapted from  FIG. 5B . As such,  FIG. 5B  and  FIG. 5C  include similar user interfaces and elements labeled with the same reference number in both figures have the same function, only the differences are described herein for the sake of brevity. For example, the conversation  504   a  includes the messages  534   a  and  534   b , which satisfy the one or more conversation criteria (e.g., similar subjects, content, senders, recipients, and/or the like). As shown in  FIG. 5C , the messages  534   a  and  534   b  are displayed inline in the inbox folder view  502 . For example, the vertical orientation of the chevrons associated with the view mode affordance  514   a  indicate that the first row associated with the conversation  504   a  is displayed in the expanded view mode. 
       FIGS. 5D-5E  illustrate a sequence in which additional information (e.g., a bundle view  552 ) for a second plurality of messages that satisfy a first category criterion (e.g., the bundle of messages  504   b  associated with an updates criterion  515 ) replaces display of an inbox folder view  502 .  FIG. 5D  is similar to and adapted from  FIG. 5A . As such,  FIG. 5A  and  FIG. 5D  include similar user interfaces and elements labeled with the same reference number in both figures have the same function, only the differences are described herein for the sake of brevity.  FIG. 5D  illustrates detecting a contact  550  at a location corresponding to the view mode affordance  514   b.    
     In some embodiments, in response to selection of the view mode affordance  514   b  (e.g.,  FIG. 5D ), the second row associated with the bundle of messages  504   b  changes from the condensed view to an expanded view with additional information corresponding to two or more messages from the bundle of messages  504   b  represented by the second row. In some embodiments, in response to selection of the view mode affordance in the second row displayed in the inbox folder region/pane (e.g.,  FIG. 5N ), additional information corresponding to two or more messages from the bundle of messages represented by the second row is displayed. In some embodiments, the additional information is displayed in a bundle view  552  that replaces the inbox folder view  502  (e.g.,  FIG. 5E ). In some embodiments, the additional information is displayed inline in the inbox folder view  502  (e.g.,  FIG. 5F ). In some embodiments, the additional information is displayed in an adjacent content region/pane (e.g.,  FIG. 5O ). 
       FIG. 5E  illustrates replacing display of the inbox folder view  502  with a bundle view  552  in response to detecting selection of the view mode affordance  514   b  in  FIG. 5D . As such, the second row associated with the bundle of messages  504   b  changes from the condensed view in  FIG. 5D  to the expanded view in  FIG. 5E  with additional information corresponding to two or more messages from the bundle of messages  504   b.    
     As shown in  FIG. 5E , the bundle view  552  includes a plurality of rows in condensed view mode. For example, in  FIG. 5E , each of the rows corresponds to a message included in the bundle of messages  504   b . For example, the bundle of messages  504   b  at least includes messages  554   a ,  554   b , and  554   c , which satisfy a first category criterion associated with the updates criterion  515  (e.g., messages with content related to social media updates/notification). 
     In  FIG. 5E , the first row corresponds to the message  554   a . The first row includes: a timestamp for the message  554   a ; the sender of the message  554   a ; the subject of the message  554   a ; a blurb/snapshot of the contents of the message  554   a ; and a view mode affordance  564   a , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the first row to change from the condensed view mode to an expanded view mode (e.g., showing the full contents of the message  554   a ). The first row also includes an icon  519  indicating that the message  554   a  is unread. 
     In  FIG. 5E , the second row corresponds to the message  554   b . The second row includes: a timestamp for the message  554   b ; the sender of the message  554   b ; the subject of the message  554   b ; a blurb/snapshot of the contents of the message  554   b ; and a view mode affordance  564   b , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the second row to change from the condensed view mode to an expanded view mode (e.g., showing the full contents of the message  554   b ). The second row also includes an icon  519  indicating that the message  554   b  is unread. 
     In  FIG. 5E , the third row corresponds to the message  554   c . The third row includes: a timestamp for the message  554   c ; the sender of the message  554   c ; the subject of the message  554   c ; a blurb/snapshot of the contents of the message  554   c ; and a view mode affordance  564   c , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the second row to change from the condensed view mode to an expanded view mode (e.g., showing the full contents of the message  554   c ). The third row also includes an icon  519  indicating that the message  554   c  is unread. 
     In  FIG. 5E , the bundle view  552  also includes the messages affordance  517  indicating the total number of messages included in the bundle of messages  504   b  received today and the number of unread messages included in the bundle of messages  504   b . In some embodiments, when activated (e.g., with a contact), the messages affordance  517  causes display of all messages included in the bundle of messages  504   b  (e.g.,  FIGS. 5O-5P ). In some embodiments, when activated (e.g., with a contact), the messages affordance  517  causes display of the unread messages included in the bundle of messages  504   b.    
       FIGS. 5D and 5F  illustrate another sequence in which additional information for a second plurality of messages that satisfy a first category criterion (e.g., the bundle of messages  504   b  associated with an updates criterion  515 ) is displayed inline in the inbox folder view  502 .  FIG. 5F  illustrates displaying the messages  554   a ,  554   b , and  554   c  associated with the bundle of messages  504   b  inline in the inbox folder view  502  in response to detecting selection of the view mode affordance  514   b  in  FIG. 5D . As such, the second row associated with the bundle of messages  504   b  changes from the condensed view in  FIG. 5D  to the expanded view in  FIG. 5F  with additional information corresponding to two or more messages from the bundle of messages  504   b.    
       FIG. 5F  is similar to and adapted from  FIG. 5E . As such,  FIG. 5E  and  FIG. 5F  include similar user interfaces and elements labeled with the same reference number in both figures have the same function, only the differences are described herein for the sake of brevity. For example, the bundle of messages  504   b  at least includes the messages  554   a ,  554   b , and  554   c , which satisfy the updates criterion  515  (e.g., messages with content related to social media updates/notification). As shown in  FIG. 5F , the messages  554   a ,  554   b , and  554   c  are displayed inline in the inbox folder view  502 . For example, the vertical orientation of the chevrons associated with view mode affordance  514   b  indicate that the second row associated with the bundle of messages  504   b  is displayed in the expanded view mode. 
       FIG. 5F  also illustrates detecting a contact  565  at a location that corresponds to the message  554   a .  FIG. 5G  illustrates replacing the inbox folder view  502  with a message view  572  for the message  554   a  in response to detecting selection of the message  554   a  in  FIG. 5F . As shown in  FIG. 5G , the message view  572  includes the contents  574  of the message  554   a . The message view  572  also includes: a next message affordance  576   a , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the message view  572  for the message  554   a  to be replaced with a message view for a next message in the inbox folder (e.g., the message  554   b ); and a previous message affordance  576   b , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the message view  572  for the message  554   a  to be replaced with a message view for a previous message in the inbox folder (e.g., the conversation  504   a ). The message view  572  further includes: a flag affordance  578   a  for flagging the message  554   a ; a move folder affordance  578   b  for moving the message  554   a  from the inbox folder to another folder; an archive affordance  578   c  for archiving the message  554   a ; a reply affordance  578   d  for replying to or forwarding the message  554   a ; and a draft affordance  578   e  for drafting a new message. 
       FIGS. 5H-5J  illustrate a sequence in which a filter pane  582  is displayed and the filter criteria are changed in response to detecting a user input associated with a second input type (e.g., a one finger long press gesture) on the filter affordance  518   a .  FIG. 5H  is similar to and adapted from  FIG. 5A . As such,  FIG. 5A  and  FIG. 5H  include similar user interfaces and elements labeled with the same reference number in both figures have the same function, only the differences are described herein for the sake of brevity.  FIG. 5H  illustrates detecting a one finger long press gesture with a contact  580  at a location corresponding to the filter affordance  518   a.    
       FIG. 5I  illustrates replacing display of the inbox folder view  502  with a filters pane  582  in response to selection of the filter affordance  518   a  with the one finger long press gesture in  FIG. 5H . In  FIG. 5I , the filters pane  582  includes: an inbox filter  586   a , an important filter  586   b , a VIP filter  586   c , a flagged filter  586   d , an unread filter  586   e , a “To or CC” filter  586   f , and an attachments filter  586   g . As shown in  FIG. 5I , the unread filter  586   e  is currently enabled as part of the set of filter criteria as indicated by the icon  588   a  associated with the unread filter  586   e . In  FIG. 5I , the filters pane  582  also includes: a done affordance  584 , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the filter pane  582  to be replaced with the previous view/pane (e.g., the inbox folder view  502  in  FIG. 5H ); and create custom filter affordance  590  for creating and adding a custom filter to the filter pane  582 . According to some embodiments, the filters pane  582  replaces display of the inbox folder view  502  when a one finger long press gesture is detected over the filter affordance  518   a  while the set of filter criteria are active (e.g., currently applied to the inbox folder). 
       FIG. 5I  also illustrates detecting a contact  592  at a location corresponding to the important filter  586   b .  FIG. 5J  illustrates that the important filter  586   b  is enabled as part of the set of filter criteria as indicated by the icon  588   b  associated with the important filter  586   b  in response to selection of the important filter  586   b  in  FIG. 5I .  FIG. 5J  also illustrates detecting a contact  594  at a location corresponding to the done affordance  584 . 
       FIG. 5K  illustrates replacing display of the filter pane  582  with the inbox folder view  502  in response to selection of the done affordance  584  in  FIG. 5J .  FIG. 5K  is similar to and adapted from  FIG. 5H . As such,  FIG. 5H  and  FIG. 5K  include similar user interfaces and elements labeled with the same reference number in both figures have the same function, only the differences are described herein for the sake of brevity. 
       FIGS. 5K-5L  illustrate a sequence in which filter criteria (e.g., the enabled filters) are applied to the inbox folder in response to detecting a user input associated with a first input type (e.g., a one finger tap gesture) on the filter affordance  518   a .  FIG. 5K  also illustrates detecting a one finger tap gesture with a contact  596  at a location corresponding to the filter affordance  518   a.    
       FIG. 5L  illustrates replacing display of the inbox folder view  502  with a filtered inbox folder view  5114  in response to selection of the filter affordance  518   a  with the one finger tap in  FIG. 5K . As shown in  FIG. 5L , the filtered inbox folder view  5114  includes a plurality of rows in condensed view mode. According to some embodiments, each of the rows in  FIG. 5L  represents one or more messages (e.g., a bundle of messages, a conversation with a single message, or a conversation with a plurality of messages) that satisfy the set of filter criteria (e.g., the important filter  586   b  and the unread filter  586   e ). As such, in some embodiments, at least some of the messages shown in filtered inbox folder view  5114  are both unread and marked as important. In some embodiments, at least some of the messages shown in filtered inbox folder view  5114  are either unread or marked as important. 
     In  FIG. 5L , the filtered inbox folder view  5114  includes: a conversation  504   a , a conversation  504   f , a conversation  504   g , a conversation  504   h , a conversation  504   i , a conversation  504   j , and a conversation  504   k  (partially occluded). As shown in  FIG. 5L , the conversation  504   a  is separated from the conversation  504   f  by an expansion affordance  5102   a . According to some embodiments, the expansion affordance  5102   a  indicates that a first set of one or more messages with timestamps between the timestamp associated with the conversation  504   a  and the timestamp associated with the conversation  504   f  have been elided. For example, the first set of one or more messages are elided due to not satisfying the set of filter criteria. When activated (e.g., with a contact), the expansion affordance  5102   a  causes the first set of one or more elided messages to be displayed between the conversation  504   a  and the conversation  504   f.    
     Similarly, in  FIG. 5L , the conversation  504   i  is separated from the conversation  504   j  by an expansion affordance  5102   b . According to some embodiments, the expansion affordance  5102   b  indicates that a second set of one or more messages with timestamps between the timestamp associated with the conversation  504   i  and the timestamp associated with the conversation  504   j  have been elided. For example, the one or more messages are elided due to not satisfying the filter criteria. When activated (e.g., with a contact), the expansion affordance  5102   b  causes the second set of one or more elided messages to be displayed between the conversation  504   i  and the conversation  504   j.    
     In  FIG. 5L , the filtered inbox folder view  5114  also includes an indication  598  of the set of filters applied to the current folder (e.g., the important filter  586   b  and the unread filter  586   e ). In some embodiments, the indication  598  includes a text description of the set of filters applied to the current folder as shown in  FIG. 5L . In some embodiments, the indication  598  includes one or more distinct icons associated with the filters in the set of filters applied to the current folder. 
       FIGS. 5L-5M  illustrate a sequence in which elided messages are displayed within the filtered inbox folder view  5114 .  FIG. 5L  further illustrates detecting a contact  5100  at a location corresponding to the expansion affordance  5102   a .  FIG. 5M  illustrates displaying a first set of elided messages within the filtered inbox folder view  5114  in response to selection of the expansion affordance  5102   a  in  FIG. 5L . As shown in  FIG. 5M , the first set of elided messages corresponding to the conversations  504   e ,  504   c , and  504   d  is displayed between the conversations  504   a  and  504   f.    
       FIG. 5N  illustrates displaying a dual-pane user interface associated with an electronic mail (email) and/or messaging application that includes a folders pane  5110  and a content pane  5120  within the display area  501  of the device  100 . As shown in  FIG. 5N , the folders pane  5110  corresponds to an inbox folder that includes electronic communications to and/or from the user of the device  100 . For example, the electronic communications include email conversations, email messages, instant message conversations, instant messages, SMSs, MMSs, talk-to-text, and/or the like. In some embodiments, the content displayed within the folders pane  5110  corresponds to a grouping of electronic communications such as a specific folder, category, or tag. In some embodiments, the user of the device  100  is able to select between different groupings of electronic communications such as folders, categories, or tags. 
     As shown in  FIG. 5N , the folders pane  5110  includes: a back affordance  516   a , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the folders pane  5110  associated with the inbox folder to be replaced with a previous view or pane; and an edit affordance  516   b  for marking, moving, and archiving electronic communications in the inbox folder. As shown in  FIG. 5N , the folders pane  5110  also includes a filter affordance  518   a , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the messages, conversations, and/or bundles associated with the inbox folder to be filtered according to a set of filter criteria or a filter pane/menu to be displayed. 
     As shown in  FIG. 5N , the folders pane  5110  further includes a plurality of rows corresponding to conversations with one or more message, bundles of messages, or single messages. In some embodiments, a row represents a plurality of messages (e.g., electronic communications) that satisfy one or more conversation criteria (e.g., a conversation with one or more messages with similar subjects, content, senders, recipients, and/or the like). In some embodiments, a row represents a plurality of messages (e.g., electronic communications) that satisfy a category criterion (e.g., a bundle of promotional, finance, social activity, etc. messages). In some embodiments, a row represents a single message. 
     In  FIG. 5N , the first row in the folders pane  5110  corresponds to a conversation  5112   a  (e.g., with one message). The first row includes: a timestamp for the conversation  5112   a ; the sender of the conversation  5112   a ; the subject of the conversation  5112   a  (e.g., “Request for Shore Leave”); a blurb/snapshot of the contents of the conversation  5112   a ; and a view mode affordance  5114   a , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the first row to change from the expanded view mode to the condensed view mode. For example, the single chevron associated with the view mode affordance  5114   a  indicates that the conversation  5112   a  includes one message. For example, the vertical orientation of the chevron associated with the view mode affordance  5112   a  indicates that the first row associated with the conversation  5112   a  is displayed in the expanded view mode (e.g., with the contents  5122  of the conversation  5112   a  shown in the content pane  5120 ). 
     In  FIG. 5N , the second row in the folders pane  5110  corresponds to a bundle of messages  5112   b  associated with a travel criterion  5115   a . The second row includes: a timestamp of a most recently received message in the bundle of messages  5112   b ; the sender(s) of messages in the bundle of messages  5112   b ; and a view mode affordance  5114   b , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the second row to change from the condensed view mode to an expanded view mode. 
     In  FIG. 5N , the second row also includes a messages affordance  5117   a  indicating the total number of messages included in the bundle of messages  5112   b  received today and the number of unread messages included in the bundle of messages  5112   b . In some embodiments, when activated (e.g., with a contact), the messages affordance  5117   a  causes display of all messages included in the bundle of messages  5112   b  in the content pane  5120 . In some embodiments, when activated (e.g., with a contact), the messages affordance  5117   a  causes display of the unread messages included in the bundle of messages  5112   b  in the content pane  5120 . For example, the double chevrons associated with the view mode affordance  5114   b  indicate that the bundle of messages  5112   b  includes two or more messages. For example, the horizontal orientation of the chevrons associated with the view mode affordance  5114   b  indicate that the second row associated with the bundle of messages  5112   b  is displayed in the condensed view mode. The second row further includes an icon  519  indicating that the bundle of messages  5112   b  includes one or more unread messages. 
     In  FIG. 5N , the third row in the folders pane  5110  corresponds to a conversation  5112   c  (e.g., with one message). The third row includes: a timestamp for the conversation  5112   c ; the sender of the conversation  5112   c ; the subject of the conversation  5112   c  (e.g., “Dehydration Machine”); a blurb/snapshot of the contents of the conversation  5112   c ; and a view mode affordance  5114   c , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the third row to change from the expanded view mode to the condensed view mode. For example, the single chevron associated with the view mode affordance  5114   c  indicates that the conversation  5112   c  includes one message. For example, the horizontal orientation of the chevron associated with the view mode affordance  5112   c  indicates that the first row associated with the conversation  5112   c  is displayed in the condensed view mode. The first row also includes an icon  519  indicating that the conversation  5112   c  includes an unread message. 
     In  FIG. 5N , the fourth row in the folders pane  5110  corresponds to a bundle of messages  5112   d  associated with a fashion criterion  5115   b . The fourth row includes: a timestamp of a most recently received message in the bundle of messages  5112   d ; the sender(s) of messages in the bundle of messages  5112   d ; and a view mode affordance  5114   d , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the fourth row to change from the condensed view mode to an expanded view mode. 
     In  FIG. 5N , the fourth row also includes a messages affordance  5117   b  indicating the total number of messages included in the bundle of messages  5112   d  received today and the number of unread messages included in the bundle of messages  5112   d . In some embodiments, when activated (e.g., with a contact), the messages affordance  5117   b  causes display of all messages included in the bundle of messages  5112   d  in the content pane  5120 . In some embodiments, when activated (e.g., with a contact), the messages affordance  5117   b  causes display of the unread messages included in the bundle of messages  5112   d  in the content pane  5120 . For example, the double chevrons associated with the view mode affordance  5114   d  indicate that the bundle of messages  5112   d  includes two or more messages. For example, the horizontal orientation of the chevrons associated with the view mode affordance  5114   d  indicate that the fourth row associated with the bundle of messages  5112   d  is displayed in the condensed view mode. The fourth row further includes an icon  519  indicating that the bundle of messages  5112   d  includes one or more unread messages. 
     In  FIG. 5N , the fifth row in the folders pane  5110  corresponds to a conversation  5112   e  (e.g., with one message). The third row includes: a timestamp for the conversation  5112   e ; the sender of the conversation  5112   e ; the subject of the conversation  5112   c  (e.g., “Battle of the Coral Sea Recap”); and a blurb/snapshot of the contents of the conversation  5112   e.    
     As shown in  FIG. 5N , the content pane  5120  includes the contents  5122  of the message included in the conversation  5112   a . In  FIG. 5N , the content pane  5120  also includes: the flag affordance  578   a  for flagging the message included in the conversation  5112   a ; the move folder affordance  578   b  for moving the message included in the conversation  5112   a  from the inbox folder to another folder; the archive affordance  578   c  for archiving the message included in the conversation  5112   a ; the reply affordance  578   d  for replying to or forwarding the message included in the conversation  5112   a ; and the draft affordance  578   e  for drafting a new message. 
       FIGS. 5N-5O  illustrate a sequence in which additional information for a second plurality of messages that satisfy a category criterion (e.g., a bundle of messages associated with the travel criterion  5115   a ) is displayed in the content pane  5120 .  FIG. 5N  further illustrates detecting a contact  5124  at a location corresponding to the view mode affordance  5114   b .  FIG. 5O  illustrates displaying additional information for the bundle of messages  5112   b  in the content pane  5120  in response to selection of the view mode affordance  5114   b  in  FIG. 5N .  FIG. 5O  is similar to and adapted from  FIG. 5N . A such,  FIG. 5N  and  FIG. 5O  include similar user interfaces and elements labeled with the same reference number in both figures have the same function, only the differences are described herein for the sake of brevity. 
     As shown in  FIG. 5O , the content pane  5120  includes a plurality of rows in condensed view mode. For example, in  FIG. 5O , each of the rows corresponds to messages included in the bundle of messages  5112   b . For example, the bundle of messages  5112   b  at least includes the message  5132   a , the sub-bundle of messages  5132   b , and the message  5132   c , which satisfy a category criterion associated with the travel criterion  5115   a  (e.g., messages with content related to travel, hotels, airplane tickets, etc.).

       FIG. 5N  and  FIG. 5Q  illustrate another sequence in which additional information for a second plurality of messages that satisfy a category criterion (e.g., a bundle of messages associated with a travel criterion  5115   a ) is displayed in a content pane  5120 . FIG.  5 Q illustrates displaying additional information for the bundle of messages  5112   a  inline in the folders pane  5110  and also in the content pane  5120  in response to selection of the view mode affordance  5114   b  in  FIG. 5N .  FIG. 5Q  is similar to and adapted from  FIG. 5O . As such,  FIG. 5O  and  FIG. 5Q  include similar user interfaces and elements labeled with the same reference number in both figures have the same function, only the differences are described herein for the sake of brevity. As shown in  FIG. 5Q , the conversation  5132   a  included in the bundle of messages  5112   a , the sub-bundle of messages  5132   b  included in the bundle of messages  5112   a , the conversation  5132   c  included in the bundle of messages  5112   a , and the messages affordance  5117   a  are displayed inline in the folders pane  5110 . 
     In  FIG. 5Q , for example, the vertical orientation of the chevrons associated with the view mode affordance  5114   b  indicate that the bundle of messages  5112   b  is displayed in the expanded view mode (e.g., with additional information displayed inline in the folders pane  5110 ). For example, the vertical orientation of the chevron associated with the view mode affordance  5134   a  indicates that the conversation  5132   a  included in the bundle of messages  5112   b  is displayed in the expanded view mode (e.g., with contents  5138  displayed in the content pane  5120 ). 
     As shown in  FIG. 5Q , the contents  5138  of the conversation  5132   a  are displayed in the content pane  5120 . In  FIG. 5Q , the conversation  5132   a  is displayed as a top message in stack of messages  5139  associated with the bundle of messages  5112   b  that satisfy the travel criterion  5115   a.    
       FIGS. 5Q-5R  illustrate a sequence in which additional information for a second plurality of messages that satisfy a sub-category criterion (e.g., a sub-bundle of messages associated with a Europe criterion  5131 ) is displayed in the content pane  5120 .  FIG. 5Q  also illustrates detecting a contact  5140  at a location corresponding to the view mode affordance  5134   b  associated with the sub-bundle of messages  5132   b .  FIG. 5R  illustrates displaying additional information for the sub-bundle of messages  5132   b  inline in the inbox folder pane  5110  and also in the content pane  5120  in response to selection of the view mode affordance  5134   b  in  FIG. 5Q . 
       FIG. 5R  is similar to and adapted from  FIGS. 5O-5Q . As such,  FIGS. 5O-5Q  and  FIG. 5R  include similar user interfaces and elements labeled with the same reference number in both figures have the same function, only the differences are described herein for the sake of brevity. As shown in  FIG. 5R , the conversation  5142   a  and the conversation  5142   b  included in the sub-bundle of messages  5132   b  are displayed inline in the folders pane  5110 . 
     In  FIG. 5R , for example, the vertical orientation of the chevrons associated with the view mode affordance  5114   b  indicate that the bundle of messages  5112   b  is displayed in the expanded view mode (e.g., with additional information displayed inline in the folders pane  5110 ). For example, the vertical orientation of the chevrons associated with the view mode affordance  5134   b  indicate that the sub-bundle of messages  5132   b  is displayed in the expanded view mode (e.g., with additional information displayed inline in the folders pane  5110 ). For example, the vertical orientation of the chevron associated with the view mode affordance  51146  indicates that the conversation  5142   a  included in the sub-bundle of messages  5132   b  is displayed in the expanded view mode (e.g., with the contents  5144  displayed in the content pane  5120 ). 
     As shown in  FIG. 5R , the contents  5144  of the conversation  5142   a  included in the sub-bundle of messages  5132   b  are displayed in the content pane  5120 . In  FIG. 5R , the conversation  5142   a  is displayed as a top message in a stack of messages  5145  associated with the sub-bundle of messages  5132   b  that satisfy the Europe criterion  5131 . 
       FIGS. 6A-6F  illustrate example user interfaces for managing electronic communications in accordance with some embodiments. The user interfaces in these figures are used to illustrate the processes described below, including the processes in  FIGS. 8A-8C and 9A-9C . Although some of the examples which follow will be given with reference to inputs on a touch-sensitive surface  451  that is separate from the display  450 , in some embodiments, the device (e.g., the device  300 ) detects inputs on a touch-screen display (where the touch-sensitive surface and the display are combined), as shown in  FIG. 4A . 
       FIG. 6A  illustrates displaying a user interface including a window  602  and a dock  605  with a plurality of dock icons  606 -A,  606 -B, and  606 -C for different applications within the display area  601 . For example, the window  602  corresponds to associated an electronic mail (email) and/or messaging application. As shown in  FIG. 6A , the window  602  includes a chrome region  604 , a folders pane  610 , and a content pane  620 . In  FIG. 6A , the folders pane  610  corresponds to an inbox folder that includes electronic communications to and/or from the user of the device. For example, the electronic communications include email conversations, email messages, instant message conversations, instant messages, SMSs, MMSs, talk-to-text, and/or the like. In some embodiments, the content displayed within the folders pane  610  corresponds to a grouping of electronic communications such as a specific folder, category, or tag. In some embodiments, the user of the device is able to select between different groupings of electronic communications such as folders, categories, or tags. 
     As shown in  FIG. 6A , the folders pane  610  includes a plurality of rows corresponding to conversations  612   a ,  612   b ,  612   c ,  612   d ,  612   e , and  612   f  (partially occluded) each with one or more messages. In  FIG. 6A , the folders pane  610  also includes: a sorting affordance  616   a , which indicates that the inbox folder is currently sorted in chronological order with the newest conversation first; and a filter affordance  616   b , which indicates zero or more filters currently applied to the inbox folder (e.g., no filters are currently applied to the inbox folder in  FIG. 6A ). When activated (e.g., with a single or double click via the focus selector  603 ), the sorting affordance  616   a  causes the inbox folder to be re-sorted. 
     When activated with a first input type (e.g., with a single click via the focus selector  603 ), the filter affordance  616   b  causes the application of a set of filter criteria to the electronic communications in the inbox folder (if the set of filter criteria are currently deactivated as shown in  FIGS. 6A-6B ). When activated with a first input type (e.g., with a single click via the focus selector  603 ), the filter affordance  616   b  causes deactivation of a set of filter criteria applied to the electronic communications in the inbox folder (if the set of filter criteria are currently active as shown in  FIGS. 6D-6E . When activated with a second input type (e.g., with a double click via the focus selector  603 ), the filter affordance  616   b  causes a filter menu to be overlaid on the window  602  (e.g.,  FIG. 6C ). 
     In  FIG. 6A , the first row in the folders pane  610  includes: a timestamp of a most recently received message in the conversation  612   a ; the sender(s) of messages in the conversation  612   a ; the subject of the conversation  612   a  (e.g., “Apple Picking”); a blurb/snapshot of the contents of the conversation  612   a ; and a view mode affordance  616   a , which, when activated (e.g., with the focus selector  603 ), causes the first row to change from the condensed view mode to an expanded view mode (e.g.,  FIG. 6B ). For example, the double chevrons associated with the view mode affordance  616   a  indicate that the conversation  612   a  includes two or more messages. For example, the horizontal orientation of the chevrons associated with the view mode affordance  616   a  indicate that the conversation  612   a  is displayed in the condensed view mode. The first row also includes an icon  619  indicating that the conversation  612   a  includes one or more unread messages. 
     In  FIG. 6A , the second row in the folders pane  610  includes: a timestamp for the message associated with the conversation  612   b ; the sender of messages in the message associated with the conversation  612   b ; the subject of the message associated with the conversation  612   b  (e.g., “Fort Wayne Historic Site”); a blurb/snapshot of the contents of the message associated with the conversation  612   b ; and a view mode affordance  616   b , which, when activated (e.g., with the focus selector  603 ), causes the second row to change from the expanded view mode to the condensed view mode. For example, the single chevron associated with the view mode affordance  616   b  indicates that the conversation  612   b  includes a single message. For example, the vertical orientation of the chevron associated with the view mode affordance  616   b  indicates that the conversation  612   b  is displayed in the expanded view mode (e.g., with the contents  622  of the conversation  612   b  displayed in the content pane  620 ). 
     In  FIG. 6A , the third row in the folders pane  610  includes: a timestamp for the message associated with the conversation  612   c ; the sender of messages in the message associated with the conversation  612   c ; the subject of the message associated with the conversation  612   c  (e.g., “Dehydration Machine”); a blurb/snapshot of the contents of the message associated with the conversation  612   c ; and a view mode affordance  616   c , which, when activated (e.g., with the focus selector  603 ), causes the second row to change from the condensed view mode to the expanded view mode (e.g., with the contents of the message associated with the conversation  612   c  in the content pane  620 ). For example, the single chevron associated with the view mode affordance  616   c  indicates that the conversation  612   c  includes a single message. For example, the horizontal orientation of the chevron associated with the view mode affordance  616   c  indicates that the conversation  612   c  is displayed in the condensed view mode. 
     As shown in  FIG. 6A , the content pane  620  includes the content  622  of the message associated with the conversation  612   b . In  FIG. 6A , the content pane  620  also includes: a flag affordance  624   a  for flagging the message associated with the conversation  612   b ; a move folder affordance  624   b  for moving the message associated with the conversation  612   b  from the inbox folder to another folder; an archive affordance  624   c  for archiving the message associated with the conversation  612   b ; a reply affordance  624   d  for replying to or forwarding the message associated with the conversation  612   b ; and a draft affordance  624   e  for drafting a new message. 
       FIGS. 6A-6B  illustrate a sequence in which additional information for a first plurality of messages that satisfy one or more conversation criteria (e.g., the conversation  612   a ) is displayed in a content pane  620 .  FIG. 6A  also illustrates displaying the focus selector  603  at a location corresponding to the view mode affordance  616   a .  FIG. 6B  illustrates replacing display of the content  622  of the message associated with the conversation  612   b  in the content pane  620  with the messages  632   a  and  632   b  associated with the conversation  612   a  in response to selection of the view mode affordance  616   a  in  FIG. 6A . As shown in  FIG. 6B , the content pane  620  includes a plurality of rows corresponding to the messages  632   a  and  632   b.    
     In  FIG. 6B , the first row in the content pane  620 , corresponding to the message  632   a , includes: a timestamp for the message  632   a ; the sender of the message  632   a ; the subject of the message  632   a ; a blurb/snapshot of the contents of message  632   a ; and a view mode affordance  634   a , which, when activated (e.g., with the focus selector  603 ), causes the first row to change from the condensed view mode to an expanded view mode (e.g., showing the full contents of the message  632   a  in the content pane  620 ). The first row also includes an icon  619  indicating that the message  632   a  is unread. 
     In  FIG. 6B , the second row in the content pane  620 , corresponding to the message  632   b , includes: a timestamp for the message  632   b ; the sender of the message  632   b ; the subject of the message  632   b ; a blurb/snapshot of the contents of the message  632   b ; and a view mode affordance  634   b , which, when activated (e.g., with the focus selector  603 ), causes the first row to change from the condensed view mode to an expanded view mode (e.g., showing the full contents of the message  632   b  in the content pane  620 ). The second row also includes an icon  619  indicating that the message  634   b  is unread. 
     In  FIG. 6B , for example, the vertical orientation of the chevrons associated with the view mode affordance  616   a  indicates that the conversation  612   a  is displayed in the expanded view mode. For example, the horizontal orientation of the chevron associated with the view mode affordance  616   b  indicates that the conversation  612   b  is displayed in the condensed view mode. 
       FIGS. 6B-6C  illustrate a sequence in which a filter menu  640  is displayed in response to detecting selection of the filter affordance  616   b  with a second input type (e.g., a double click with the focus selector  603 ).  FIG. 6B  also illustrates displaying the focus selector  603  at a location corresponding to the filter affordance  616   b .  FIG. 6C  illustrates displaying a filters menu  640  overlaid on the window  602  in response to selection of the filter affordance  616   b  with a second input type (e.g., a double click with the focus selector  603 ) in  FIG. 6B .  FIG. 6C  is similar to and adapted from  FIG. 6B . As such,  FIG. 6B  and  FIG. 6B  include similar user interfaces and elements labeled with the same reference number in both figures have the same function, only the differences are described herein for the sake of brevity. 
     As shown in  FIG. 6C , the filters menu  640  includes: an inbox filter  642   a , an important filter  642   b , a VIP filter  642   c , a flagged filter  642   d , an unread filter  642   e , a “To or CC” filter  642   f , and an attachments filter  642   g . As shown in  FIG. 6C , the flagged filter  642   d  is currently enabled as part of the filter criteria as indicated by the icon  646   a  associated with the flagged filter  642   d . In  FIG. 6C , filters menu  640  also includes a create custom filter affordance  644  for creating and adding a custom filter to the filters menu  640 . According to some embodiments, the filters menu  640  is overlaid on the window  602  when a one finger long press gesture is detected over the filter affordance  616   b  while the set of filter criteria are active (e.g., currently applied to the inbox folder). 
       FIG. 6B  and  FIG. 6D  illustrate a sequence in which filter criteria are applied to the inbox folder in response to detecting selection of the filter affordance  616   b  with a first input type (e.g., a single click with the focus selector  603 ).  FIG. 6D  illustrates displaying a filtered inbox folder in the folders pane  610  in response to detecting selection of the filter affordance  616   b  with the first input type (e.g., a single click with the focus selector  603 ) in  FIG. 6B . As shown in  FIG. 6D , the filtered inbox folder includes a plurality of conversations  612   c ,  612   d ,  612   e ,  612   f , and  612   g  (partially occluded) that satisfy the set of filter criteria (e.g., the flagged filter  642   d ). As such, according to some embodiments, the conversations  612   c ,  612   d ,  612   e ,  612   f , and  612   g  (e.g., with one or more messages) shown in filtered inbox folder in the folders pane  610  include one or more flagged messages. 
     As shown in  FIG. 6D , the folders pane  610  includes an expansion affordance  654  above the conversation  612   c . According to some embodiments, the expansion affordance  654  indicates that a set of one or more messages with timestamps before the timestamp associated with the conversation  612   c  have been elided. For example, the set of one or more messages are elided due to not satisfying the set of filter criteria (e.g., the flagged filter  642   d ). When activated (e.g., with the focus selector  603 ), the expansion affordance  654  causes the set of one or more elided messages to be displayed above the conversation  612   c.    
     In  FIG. 6D , the filter affordance  616   b  includes an indication of the set of filters applied to the current folder (e.g., the flagged filter  642   d ). In some embodiments, the indication includes a text description of the set of filters applied to the current folder as shown in  FIG. 6D . In some embodiments, the indication includes one or more distinct icons for the set of filters applied to the current folder. 
     As shown in  FIG. 6D , the content pane  620  includes the contents  652  associated with the conversation  612   c . In  FIG. 6D , for example, the vertical orientation of the chevron associated with the view mode affordance  616   c  indicates that the conversation  612   c  is displayed in the expanded view mode (e.g., the contents  652  associated with the conversation  612   c  are displayed in the content pane  620 ). 
     For example, a user of the device changes the active folder in the folder pane  610  from the inbox folder to folder A. Continuing with this example,  FIG. 6E  illustrates displaying filtered folder A in the folders pane  610  in response to switching the active folder. Moreover, the set of filter criteria (e.g., the flagged filter  642   d ) are applied to folder A after switching the active folder. 
     As shown in  FIG. 6E , the filtered folder A includes a plurality of conversations  662   a ,  662   b ,  662   c , and  662   d  that satisfy the set of filter criteria (e.g., the flagged filter  642   d ). As such, in some embodiments, the conversations  662   a ,  662   b ,  662   c , and  662   d  (e.g., with one or more messages) include one or more flagged messages.  FIG. 6E  also illustrates displaying the contents  672  of the conversation  662   a  in the content pane  620 . 
     In  FIG. 6E , the first row in the folders pane  610  includes: a timestamp for the message associated with the conversation  662   a ; the sender of the message associated with the conversation  662   a ; the subject of the conversation  662   a  (e.g., “Koalas in Trees”); a blurb/snapshot of the contents of the conversation  662   a ; and a view mode affordance  664   a , which, when activated (e.g., with the focus selector  603 ), causes the first row to change from the expanded view mode to the condensed view mode. For example, the single chevron associated with the view mode affordance  664   a  indicates that the conversation  662   a  includes a single message. For example, the vertical orientation of the chevron associated with the view mode affordance  664   a  indicates that the conversation  662   a  is displayed in the expanded view mode (e.g., with the contents  672  displayed in the content pane  620 ). 
     In  FIG. 6E , the second row in the folders pane  610  includes: a timestamp for the message associated with the conversation  662   b ; the sender of the message associated with the conversation  662   b ; the subject of the message associated with the conversation  662   b  (e.g., “Black Shades”); a blurb/snapshot of the contents of the message associated with the conversation  662   b ; and a view mode affordance  664   b , which, when activated (e.g., with the focus selector  603 ), causes the second row to change from the condensed view mode to the expanded view mode (e.g., with the contents of the message associated with the conversation  662   b  displayed in the content pane  620 ). For example, the single chevron associated with the view mode affordance  664   b  indicates that the conversation  662   b  includes a single message. For example, the horizontal orientation of the chevron associated with the view mode affordance  664   b  indicates that the conversation  662   b  is displayed in the condensed view mode. The second row also includes an icon  619  indicating that the conversation  662   b  includes one or more unread messages. 
     As shown in  FIG. 6E , the folders pane  610  includes an expansion affordance  666  below the conversation  662   d . According to some embodiments, the expansion affordance  666  indicates that a set of one or more messages with timestamps after the timestamp associated with the conversation  662   d  have been elided. For example, the set of one or more messages are elided due to not satisfying the set of filter criteria (e.g., (e.g., the flagged filter  642   d ). When activated (e.g., with the focus selector  603 ), the expansion affordance  666  causes the set of one or more elided messages to be displayed below the conversation  662   d.    
       FIG. 6E-6F  illustrate a sequence in which the filter criteria are deactivated.  FIG. 6E  further illustrates displaying the focus selector  603  at a location corresponding to the filter affordance  616   b .  FIG. 6F  illustrates disabling the set of filter criteria and displaying folder A in the folders pane  610  in response to detecting selection of the filter affordance  616   b  with the first input type (e.g., a single click with the focus selector  603 ) in  FIG. 6E . 
       FIG. 6F  is similar to and adapted from  FIG. 6E . A such,  FIG. 6E  and  FIG. 6F  include similar user interfaces and elements labeled with the same reference number in both figures have the same function, only the differences are described herein for the sake of brevity. In  FIG. 6F , the filter affordance  616   b  indicates that no filters are currently applied to folder A, as compared to  FIG. 6E  where the flagged filter  642   d  is applied to folder A. As shown in  FIG. 6F , the folders pane  610  includes conversations  662   a ,  662   b ,  662   c ,  662   d ,  662   e , and  662   f  (partially occluded) and does not include the expansion affordance  666 , as compared to  FIG. 6E . 
       FIGS. 7A-7P  illustrate example user interfaces for managing electronic communications in accordance with some embodiments. The user interfaces in these figures are used to illustrate the processes described below, including the processes in  FIGS. 10A-10C . Although some of the examples which follow will be given with reference to inputs on a touch-screen display (where the touch-sensitive surface and the display are combined), in some embodiments, the device detects inputs on a touch-sensitive surface  451  that is separate from the display  450 , as shown in  FIG. 4B . 
       FIG. 7A  illustrates displaying a folder view  702  associated with an inbox folder within the display area of the device  100 . For example, the inbox folder is one of a plurality of folders associated with an electronic mail (email) and/or messaging application. In some embodiments, the inbox folder includes electronic communications to and/or from the user of the device  100 . For example, the electronic communications include email conversations, email messages, instant message conversations, instant messages, SMSs, MMSs, talk-to-text, and/or the like. In some embodiments, the content displayed within the display area corresponds to a grouping of electronic communications such as a specific folder, category, or tag. In some embodiments, the user of the device  100  is able to select between different groupings of electronic communications such as folders, categories, or tags. 
     As shown in  FIG. 7A , the inbox folder view  702  includes: a back affordance  716   a , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the inbox folder view  702  to be replaced with a previous view or pane; and an edit affordance  716   b  for marking, moving, and archiving electronic communications in the inbox folder. As shown in  FIG. 7A , the inbox folder view  702  also includes: a filter affordance  718   a , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the messages, conversations, and/or bundles associated with the inbox folder to be filtered according to a set of filter criteria or a filter pane to be displayed; and a draft affordance  718   b , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the inbox folder view  702  to be replaced with an interface for drafting a new message. 
     As shown in  FIG. 7A , the inbox folder view  702  further includes a plurality of rows. In some embodiments, a row represents a plurality of messages (e.g., electronic communications) that satisfy one or more conversation criteria (e.g., a conversation with one or more messages with similar subjects, content, senders, recipients, and/or the like). In some embodiments, a row represents a single message. 
     In  FIG. 7A , the first row corresponds to a conversation  704   a  (e.g., with two or more messages). The first row includes: a timestamp of a most recently received message in the conversation  704   a ; the sender(s) of messages in the conversation  704   a ; the subject of the conversation  704   a  (e.g., “Apple Picking”); and a blurb/snapshot of the contents of the conversation  704   a . The first row also includes an icon  719  indicating that the conversation  704   a  includes one or more unread messages. 
     As shown in  FIG. 7A , the second row corresponds to a message  704   b  (e.g., a conversation with one message). The second row includes: a timestamp associated with the message  704   b ; the sender of the message  704   b ; the subject of the message  704   b  (e.g., “Sulawesi Weather Reports”); and a blurb/snapshot of the contents of the message  704   b . The second row also includes an icon  719  indicating that the message  704   b  is unread. 
     As shown in  FIG. 7A , the third row corresponds to a message  704   c  (e.g., a conversation with one message). The third row includes: a timestamp associated with the message  704   c ; the sender of the message  704   c ; the subject of the message  704   c  (e.g., “Dehydration Machine”); and a blurb/snapshot of the contents of the message  704   c . The third row also includes an icon  719  indicating that the message  704   c  is unread. 
     In  FIG. 7A , the fourth row corresponds to a conversation  704   d  (e.g., with two or more messages). The fourth row includes: a timestamp of a most recently received message in the conversation  704   d ; the sender(s) of messages in the conversation  704   d ; the subject of the conversation  704   d  (e.g., “Battle of Leyte Gulf”); and a blurb/snapshot of the contents of the conversation  704   d.    
     As shown in  FIG. 7A , according to some embodiments, a respective dimension (e.g., the height) of each of the rows in the inbox folder view  702  is the same. For example, in  FIG. 7A , a respective dimension (e.g., the height) of the first row corresponding to the conversation  704   a  has a value  703 , and the respective dimension (e.g., the height) of the second row corresponding to the message  704   b  also has the value  703 . 
       FIGS. 7A-7B  illustrate a sequence in which a conversation view  730  replaces display of the inbox folder view  702 .  FIG. 7A  illustrates detecting a contact  706  at a location corresponding to the conversation  704   a  (e.g., a one finger tap gesture).  FIG. 7B  illustrates replacing display of the inbox folder view  702  with the conversation view  730  corresponding to the conversation  704   a  in response to selection of the conversation  704   a  in  FIG. 7A . 
     As shown in  FIG. 7B , the conversation view  730  includes: a header region  731   a , a content region  731   b , a toolbar region  731   c , and a subject bar  734 . In  FIG. 7B , the content region  731   b  includes: a first message region  732   a  associated with a first message in the conversation  704   a ; a second message region  732   b  associated with a second message in the conversation  704   a ; and a portion of a third message region  732   c  associated with a third message in the conversation  704   a  (sometimes collectively referred to as the “message regions  732 ”). For example, if a user scrolls the conversation view  730 , the balance of the third message region  732   c  is displayed within the content region  731   b.    
     In some embodiments, the messages are sorted in reverse chronological order. As such, in this example, the first message associated with the message region  732   a  is the most recent message in the conversation  704   a . In some embodiments, the messages are sorted in chronological order. As such, in this example, the first message associated with the message region  732   a  is the oldest message in the conversation  704   a . In  FIG. 7B , the subject bar  734  indicates the subject (e.g., “Apple Picking”) of the conversation  704   a.    
     As shown in  FIG. 7B , the message regions  732  include a header sub-region  736   a , a content sub-region  736   b , and a bottom sub-region  736   c . The header sub-region  736   a  includes the sender of the corresponding message, the recipients of the corresponding message, the folder associated with the corresponding message, a timestamp for the corresponding message, and a “details” affordance  738   a , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes additional details associated with a corresponding message to be displayed within the header sub-region  736   a . The content sub-region  736   b  includes the content of the corresponding message. The bottom sub-region  736   c  includes: a “see more” affordance  738   b , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes a message view of the corresponding message to replace display of the conversation view  730  (e.g., as shown in  FIG. 7J-7K ); and an actions affordance  738   c , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes a first set of one or more affordances to be displayed (e.g., as shown in  FIGS. 7C-7D ). 
     As shown in  FIG. 7B , the header region  731   a  includes: a back affordance  716   a , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the conversation view  730  to be replaced with the previous view or pane (e.g., the inbox folder view  702  in  FIG. 7A ); and an indication of the number of messages in the conversation  704   a  (e.g., 3 messages). According to some embodiments, the header region  731   a  also includes: a next affordance  726   a , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes a next conversation or message from the inbox folder to replace display of the conversation  704   a  within the conversation view  730 ; and a previous affordance  726   b , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes a previous conversation or message from the inbox folder to replace display of the conversation  704   a  within the conversation view  730 . According to some embodiments, the header region  731   a  also includes: a next affordance  726   a , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes a next message region (e.g., the second message region  732   b ) to be displayed at the top of the conversation view  730 ; and a previous affordance  726   b , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes a previous message region to be displayed at the top of the conversation view  730 . 
     As shown in  FIG. 7B , according to some embodiments, the toolbar region  731   c  includes: a flag affordance  728   a  for flagging the messages in the conversation  704   a ; a move folder affordance  728   b  for moving the messages in the conversation  704   a  from the inbox folder to another folder; an archive affordance  728   c  for archiving the messages in the conversation  704   a ; a reply affordance  728   d  for replying to or forwarding the conversation  704   a ; and a draft affordance  728   e  for drafting a new message. According to some embodiments, the toolbar region  731   c  includes: a flag affordance  728   a  for flagging a respective message in the conversation  704   a ; a move folder affordance  728   b  for moving the respective message in the conversation  704   a  from the inbox folder to another folder; an archive affordance  728   c  for archiving the respective message in the conversation  704   a ; a reply affordance  728   d  for replying to or forwarding the respective message in the conversation  704   a ; and a draft affordance  728   e  for drafting a new message. In some embodiments, the respective message is the most recent message within the conversation  704   a . In some embodiments, the respective message is the top-most message that is fully displayed within the conversation view  730 . 
     As shown in  FIG. 7B , according to some embodiments, a respective dimension (e.g., the height) of each of the message regions  732  is based on the amount of content associated with the corresponding message. For example, in  FIG. 7B , a respective dimension (e.g., the height) of the first message region  732   a  has a value  733   a , and the respective dimension (e.g., the height) of the second message region  732   b  has a value  733   b . In this example, the value  733   b  is greater than the value  733   a  because the first message associated with the first message region  732   a  has less content (e.g., lines of text) than the second message associated with the second message region  732   b.

The second row includes: a timestamp associated with the message  704   b ; the sender of the message  704   b ; the subject of the message  704   b  (e.g., “Sulawesi Weather Reports”); and a blurb/snapshot of the contents of the message  704   b . In  FIG. 7L , the message  704   b  is displayed in the background as indicated by the horizontal orientation of the view mode affordance  7111   b  and the non-shading of the second row within the second pane  7110 . 
     As shown in  FIG. 7L , the third row corresponds to a message  704   c  (e.g., a conversation with one message). The third row includes: a timestamp associated with the message  704   c ; the sender of the message  704   c ; the subject of the message  704   c  (e.g., “Dehydration Machine”); and a blurb/snapshot of the contents of the message  704   c.    
     In  FIG. 7L , the fourth row corresponds to a conversation  704   d  (e.g., with two or more messages). The fourth row includes: a timestamp of a most recently received message in the conversation  704   d ; the sender(s) of messages in the conversation  704   d ; the subject of the conversation  704   d  (e.g., “Battle of Leyte Gulf”); and a blurb/snapshot of the contents of the conversation  704   d.    
     As shown in  FIG. 7L , the first pane  7120  includes a conversation view  7150  of the conversation  704   a , which is displayed in the foreground in the second pane  7110 . In  FIG. 7L , the first pane  7120  includes: a first message region  732   a  associated with a first message in the conversation  704   a ; a second message region  732   b  associated with a second message in the conversation  704   a ; and a portion of a third message region  732   c  associated with a third message in the conversation  704   a  (sometimes collectively referred to as the “message regions  732 ”). For example, if a user scrolls within the first pane  7120 , the balance of the third message region  732   c  is displayed. 
     As shown in  FIG. 7L , the message regions  732  include a header sub-region  736   a , a content sub-region  736   b , and a bottom sub-region  736   c . The header sub-region  736   a  includes the sender of the corresponding message, the recipients of the corresponding message, the folder associated with the corresponding message, a timestamp for the corresponding message, and a “details” affordance  738   a , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes additional details associated with a corresponding message to be displayed within the header sub-region  736   a . The content sub-region  736   b  includes the content of the corresponding message. The bottom sub-region  736   c  includes: a “see more” affordance  738   b , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes a message view of the corresponding message to replace display of the conversation view  7150  within the first pane  7120 ; and an actions affordance  738   c , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes a first set of one or more affordances to be displayed (e.g., similar to  FIG. 7M ). 
     As shown in  FIG. 7L , according to some embodiments, a respective dimension (e.g., the height) of each of the message regions  732  is based on the amount of content for the corresponding message. For example, in  FIG. 7L , a respective dimension (e.g., the height) of the first message region  732   a  has a value  733   a , and the respective dimension (e.g., the height) of the second message region  732   b  has a value  733   b . In this example, the value  733   b  is greater than the value  733   a  because the first message associated with the first message region  732   a  has less content (e.g., lines of text) than the second message associated with the second message region  732   b.    
       FIGS. 7L-7M  illustrate a sequence in which a first set of one or more affordances is displayed within the first pane  7120 .

     As shown in  FIG. 7P , the message view  7160  includes the contents  7162  of the message  704   b . In  FIG. 7P , the conversation  704   a  is displayed in the background as indicated by the horizontal orientation of the view mode affordance  7111   a  and the non-shading of the first row within the second pane  7110 . In  FIG. 7L , the message  704   b  is displayed in the foreground or “in focus” as indicated by the vertical orientation of the view mode affordance  7111   b  and the shading of the second row within the second pane  7110 . 
       FIGS. 8A-8C  illustrate a flow diagram of a method  800  of bundling electronic communications in accordance with some embodiments. The method  800  is performed at an electronic device (e.g., the portable multifunction device  100  in  FIG. 1A , or the device  300  in  FIG. 3 ) with a one or more processors, non-transitory memory, a display, and an input device. In some embodiments, the display is a touch-screen display and the input device is on or integrated with the display. In some embodiments, the display is separate from the input device. Some operations in method  800  are, optionally, combined and/or the order of some operations is, optionally, changed. 
     As described below, the method  800  provides an intuitive way to bundle electronic communications. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user when bundling electronic communications, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated electronic devices, enabling a user to bundle electronic communications faster and more efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges. 
     The device displays ( 802 ), on the display, an inbox view of a messaging application that includes a plurality of rows representing electronic communications, the plurality of rows including a first row representing a first plurality of messages that satisfy one or more conversation criteria that indicate that each of the first plurality of messages are a part of a same respective conversation, and a second row representing a second plurality of messages that satisfy a first category criterion but are not part of a same conversation. In some embodiments, the electronic communications include email conversations, email messages, instant message conversations, instant messages, SMSs, MMSs, talk-to-text, and/or the like. In some embodiments, the inbox view corresponds to a grouping of electronic communications such as a first folder (e.g., inbox, drafts, sent, junk, trash, all mail, or a custom folder) or a first tag. In some embodiments, the one or more conversation criteria are satisfied when messages have a same group of participants, a same subject line, similar content, and/or the like. 
     For example, the second plurality of messages is a bundle of messages that correspond to a first bundling category (e.g., the first category criterion) in a condensed view mode. In some embodiments, the second plurality of messages do not satisfy the one or more conversation criteria. Thus, the second plurality of messages are not part of a same conversation. In some embodiments, a third plurality of messages represented by a third row satisfy a second bundling category (e.g., the second category criterion) but do satisfy neither the one or more conversation criteria nor the first bundling category. In some embodiments, the inbox view includes an arbitrary number of rows. In some embodiments, an arbitrary number of rows among the plurality of rows in the inbox view represent conversations. In some embodiments, an arbitrary number of rows among the plurality of rows in the inbox view represent bundles of messages. As such, according to some embodiments, the inbox view includes rows for both conversations and bundles of messages, which provides the user with a more intuitive and less cluttered interface by reducing the amount of room taken up by bulk messages in the list of messages and enabling the user to see more of the non-bulk messages without scrolling the list of message. 
     As one example,  FIG. 5A  shows a folder view  502  associated with an inbox folder for an electronic mail (email) and/or messaging application within the display area  501  of the device  100 . In  FIG. 5A , the inbox folder view  502  includes a plurality of rows in condensed view mode, including: a first row that corresponds to a conversation  504   a  (e.g., with two messages); a second row that corresponds to a bundle of messages  504   b  that satisfy an updates criterion  515 ; and a third row that corresponds to a conversation  504   c  (e.g., with a single message). 
     As another example,  FIG. 5N  shows a user interface for an electronic mail (email) and/or messaging application within the display area  501  of the device  100 . In  FIG. 5N , the user interface includes a folders pane  5110  and a content pane  5120 . As shown in  FIG. 5N , the folders pane  5110  includes: a first row that corresponds to a conversation  5112   a  (e.g., with one message); a second row that corresponds to a bundle of messages  5112   b  that satisfy a travel criterion  5115   a ; a third row that corresponds to a conversation  5112   c  (e.g., with one message); and a fourth row that corresponds to a bundle of messages  5112   d  that satisfy a fashion criterion  5115   b.    
     In some embodiments, the plurality of rows in the inbox view is sorted ( 804 ) by date, and the second row representing the plurality of messages is included in the inbox view based on a date of a most recently received message among the plurality of messages. For example, with reference to  FIG. 5A , the conversation  504   a  represented by the first row includes a message with a more recent timestamp than the messages included in the bundle of messages  504   b  represented by the second row. However, continuing with this example, the bundle of messages  504   b  represented by the second row includes a message with a more recent timestamp than the message included in the conversation  504   c  represented by the third row. 
     In some embodiments, the first category criterion corresponds to ( 806 ) one of a sender type of the second plurality of messages or a content type of the second plurality of messages. As one example, with reference to  FIG. 5A , messages included in the bundle of messages  504   b  satisfy the updates criterion  515  (e.g., messages associated with social media updates, posts, responses, comments, etc.). As another example, with reference to  FIG. 5N , messages included in the bundle of messages  5112   b  satisfy the travel criterion  5115   a  (e.g., messages with content related to travel, hotels, airplane tickets, etc.). 
     In some embodiments, the first category criterion is a promotions criterion for bulk messages sent by a company en masse that are intended to advertise a product or service. For example, a message from a retailer advertising a suit sale, a message from an airline company advertising a one-day sale on airline fares, and a message from a vacation rental company advertising last minute vacation home rentals are organized into a bundle that satisfies the promotions criterion. In some embodiments, the first category criterion is a newsletters criterion for bulk messages sent by an entity en masse that disseminate periodic information or updates. For example, messages from the dean or administration of a user&#39;s school, periodic messages associated with blogs to which the user is subscribed and periodic messages from associations to which the user is a member (e.g., AARP, AAA, bar association, etc.) are organized into a bundle that satisfies the newsletters criterion. 
     In some embodiments, the first category criterion is a reservations criterion for machine-generated messages associated with an upcoming event for the user. For example, messages associated with an upcoming dinner reservation, an upcoming airplane flight, an upcoming hotel stay, and/or the like are organized into a bundle that satisfies the reservations criterion. In some embodiments, the first category criterion is a purchases criterion for machine-generated messages associated with purchases made by the user. For example, messages associated with online purchases, ride share receipts, shipping notifications, and/or the like are organized into a bundle that satisfies the purchases criterion. In some embodiments, the first category criterion is a finance criterion for machine-generated messages associated with financial accounts or transactions. For example, messages associated with person-to-person payments and payments requests, bills, credit card statements, bank statements, bank transactions, brokerage notifications and prospectuses, and/or the like are organized into a bundle that satisfies the finance criterion. 
     In some embodiments, the first category criterion is a social activity criterion for machine-generated messages related to activity on social media networks, online dating services, media-sharing services, and/or the like. For example, messages associated with contact/friend requests, postings, comments, personal messages, photo tags, etc. are organized into a bundle that satisfies the social activity criterion. In some embodiments, the first category criterion is a notifications criterion for machine-generated messages associated with updates not covered by other bundling criteria. For example, messages associated with account security such as unidentified login attempts, credit card fraud alerts, password resets, and/or the like are organized into a bundle that satisfies the notifications criterion. In some embodiments, the first category criterion corresponds to bulk/spam email messages. 
     In some embodiments, the second row is displayed ( 808 ) in a condensed view mode prior to detecting the user input. As one example, in  FIG. 5A , the second row representing the bundle of messages  504   b  is displayed in the condensed view mode. According to some embodiments, the horizontal orientation of the chevrons associated with the view mode affordance  514   b , in  FIG. 5A , indicate that the second row representing the bundle of messages  504   b  is displayed in the condensed view mode. As another example, in  FIG. 5N , the second row in the folders pane  5110  representing the bundle of messages  5112   b  is displayed in the condensed view mode. According to some embodiments, the horizontal orientation of the chevrons associated with the view mode affordance  5114   b , in  FIG. 5N , indicate that the second row representing the bundle of messages  5112   b  is displayed in the condensed view mode. As such, according to some embodiments, when displayed in the condensed mode, the rows occupy less space while still conveying important information regarding the messages represented by the rows, which provides the user with a more intuitive and less cluttered interface by informing the user of the number and status of the messages in the row, that will help a user decide whether or not to expand the row to view the messages in the row. 
     In some embodiments, the condensed view mode includes ( 810 ) one or more of an indication of the first category, one or more senders of the plurality of messages represented by the second row, an indication of a most recently received message among the plurality of messages represented by the second row (e.g., timestamp and/or blurb), an indication of a count of the plurality of messages represented by the second row, or an indication of a count of the unread messages among the plurality of messages represented by the second row. As one example, in  FIG. 5A , the second row representing the bundle of messages  504   b  includes: a timestamp of a most recently received message in the bundle of messages  504   b ; the sender(s) of messages in the bundle of messages  504   b ; and a messages affordance  517  indicating the total number of messages included in the bundle of messages  504   b  received today and the number of unread messages included in the bundle of messages  504   b . As another example, in  FIG. 5N , the second row representing the bundle of messages  5112   b  includes: a timestamp of a most recently received message in the bundle of messages  5112   b ; the sender(s) of messages in the bundle of messages  5112   b ; and a messages affordance  5117   a  indicating the total number of messages included in the bundle of messages  5112   b  received today and the number of unread messages included in the bundle of messages  5112   b.    
     In some embodiments, the second plurality of messages represented by the second row are not displayed ( 812 ) in the inbox view while the second row is displayed in the condensed view mode. For example, while in the condensed view mode in  FIG. 5A , the second row representing the bundle of messages  504   b  includes a timestamp of a most recently received message in the bundle of messages  504   b  and at least some of the sender(s) of messages in the bundle of messages  504   b , but does not include the second plurality of messages. 
     In some embodiments, the second row includes ( 814 ) a view mode affordance provided to toggle between the condensed view mode and an expanded view mode of the second row. As one example, in  FIG. 5A , the first row representing the conversation  504   a  includes a view mode affordance  514   b , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the second row to change from the condensed view mode to an expanded view mode (e.g., as shown in  FIGS. 5B-5C ). Similarly, in  FIG. 5A , the second row representing the bundle of messages  504   b  includes a view mode affordance  514   b , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the second row to change from the condensed view mode to an expanded view mode (e.g., as shown in  FIGS. 5E-5F ). And, in  FIG. 5A , the third row representing the conversation  504   c  includes a view mode affordance  514   c , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes the third row to change from the condensed view mode to an expanded view mode. 
     The device detects ( 816 ) an input, via the input device, corresponding to selection of a respective row from among the plurality of rows in the inbox view. As one example,  FIG. 5A  shows a contact  520  detected at a location corresponding to the view mode affordance  514   a . As another example,  FIG. 5D  shows a contact  550  detected at a location corresponding to the view mode affordance  514   b . As yet another example,  FIG. 5N  shows a contact  6124  detected at a location corresponding to the view mode affordance  5114   b . As yet another example,  FIG. 6A  shows the focus selector  603  at a location corresponding to the view mode affordance  616   a.    
     In response to detecting the input, and in accordance with a determination that the respective row corresponds to the first row, the device displays ( 820 ), on the display, additional information corresponding to two or more messages from the conversation of related messages that are represented by the first row. According to some embodiments, the device displays two or messages included in the conversation of related messages. In some embodiments, the two or more messages from the conversation replace the inbox view. In some embodiments, the two or more messages from the conversation are displayed inline in the inbox view. In some embodiments, the two or more messages are displayed in an adjacent content pane. As such, according to some embodiments, the user is able to easily view/access additional information (e.g., an expanded view) corresponding to the first row without unnecessarily cluttering the inbox view. 
     As one example, in  FIG. 5B , the inbox folder view  502  is replaced with a conversation view  532  with messages  534   a  and  534   b  included in the conversation  504   a  in response to selection of the view mode affordance  514   a  in  FIG. 5A . As another example, in  FIG. 5C , the messages  534   a  and  534   b  included in the conversation  504   a  are displayed inline in the inbox folder view  502  in response to selection of the view mode affordance  514   a  in  FIG. 5A . As yet another example, in  FIG. 6B , the content  622  in the content pane  620  is replaced with the messages  632   a  and  632   b  included in the conversation  612   a  in response to selection of the view mode affordance  616   a  in  FIG. 6A . 
     In response to detecting the input, and in accordance with a determination that the respective row corresponds to the second row, the device displays ( 822 ), on the display, additional information corresponding to two or more messages from among the second plurality of messages that are represented by the second row, including a first message and a second message that both satisfy the first category criterion but not part of a same conversation. According to some embodiments, input toggles the view mode of the bundle of messages from a condensed view mode to an expanded view mode. As such, according to some embodiments, the user is able to easily view/access additional information (e.g., an expanded view) corresponding to the second row without unnecessarily cluttering the inbox view. In some embodiments, the first message is part of a first conversation and the second message is part of a second conversation that is different from the first conversation. As such, in some embodiments, the first and second messages are associated with different conversations. In some embodiments, the first and second messages have different senders or participants. In some embodiments, the first and second messages do not include overlapping content. 
     In some embodiments, the two or more messages included in the bundle of messages replaces the inbox view. In some embodiments, the two or more messages included in the bundle of messages are displayed inline in the inbox view. In some embodiments, the two or more messages included in the bundle of messages are displayed in an adjacent content pane. 
     As one example, in  FIG. 5E , the inbox folder view  502  is replaced with a bundle view  552  in response to detecting selection of the view mode affordance  514   b  in  FIG. 5D . As another example, in  FIG. 5F , the messages  554   a ,  554   b , and  554   c  included in the bundle of messages  504   b  are displayed inline in the inbox folder view  502  in response to detecting selection of the view mode affordance  514   b  in  FIG. 5D . As another example, in  FIG. 5O , the content  5122  displayed in the content pane  5120  is replaced with the message  5132   a , the sub-bundle of messages  5132   b , and the message  5132   c  included in the bundle of messages  5112   b  in response to selection of the view mode affordance  5114   b  in  FIG. 5N . 
     In some embodiments, the additional information corresponding to the two or more messages from the conversation of related messages that are represented by the first row is displayed ( 824 ) inline in the inbox view, and the additional information corresponding to the two or more messages from among the plurality of messages that are represented by the second row is displayed inline in the inbox view. According to some embodiments, the device maintains display of at least a portion of the first and second rows, and the device displays the additional information as rows in the inbox view. As such, according to some embodiments, the user is able to easily view/access additional information (e.g., an expanded view) corresponding to the second row inline, which provides the user with a more intuitive and less cluttered interface. As one example, in  FIG. 5C , the messages  534   a  and  534   b  (e.g., the additional information) included in the conversation  504   a  are displayed inline in the inbox folder view  502 . As another example, in  FIG. 5F , the messages  554   a ,  554   b , and  554   c  (e.g., the additional information) included in the bundle of messages  504   b  are displayed inline in the inbox folder view  502 . 
     In some embodiments, the additional information corresponding to the two or more messages from the conversation of related messages that are represented by the first row replaces display of ( 826 ) the inbox view, and the additional information corresponding to the two or more messages from among the plurality of messages that are represented by the second row replaces display of the inbox view. According to some embodiments, the device replaces display of the inbox view with the two or more messages corresponding to the conversation or the two or more messages from the bundle of messages. As such, according to some embodiments, the user is able to easily view/access additional information (e.g., an expanded view) corresponding to the second row in a new interface that replaces the inbox view, which provides the user with a more intuitive and less cluttered interface. As one example, in  FIG. 5B , the inbox folder view  502  is replaced with a conversation view  532  that includes the messages  534   a  and  534   b  (e.g., the additional information) from the conversation  504   a . As another example, in Figure in  FIG. 5E , the inbox folder view  502  is replaced with a bundle view  552  that includes the messages  554   a ,  554   b , and  554   c  (e.g., the additional information) from the bundle of messages  504   b.    
     In some embodiments, the additional information corresponding to the two or more messages from the conversation of related messages that are represented by the first row is displayed ( 828 ) in a content pane separate from the inbox view displayed in an inbox pane, and the additional information corresponding to the two or more messages from among the plurality of messages that are represented by the second row is displayed in the content pane separate from the inbox view displayed in the inbox pane. According to some embodiments, the device maintains display of the inbox view in the inbox pane and displays the additional information in the separate content pane. As such, according to some embodiments, the user is able to easily view/access additional information (e.g., an expanded view) corresponding to the second row in a separate content pane, which provides the user with a more intuitive and less cluttered interface. As one example, in  FIG. 6B , the device maintains display of the folders pane  610  and replaces display of the content  622  in the content pane  620  with the messages  632   a  and  632   b  (e.g., the additional information) from the conversation  612   a . As another example, in  FIG. 5O , the device maintains display of the folders pane  5110  and replaces display of the content  5122  in the content pane  5120  with the message  5132   a , the sub-bundle of messages  5132   b , and the message  5132   c  (e.g., the additional information) from the bundle of messages  5112   b.    
     In some embodiments, the two or more messages from among the plurality of messages that are represented by the second row include ( 830 ) a subset of the plurality of messages selected based on a predetermined criterion. In some embodiments, the first and second messages are the most recent messages in the second plurality of messages. In some embodiments, the first and second messages are the most recent messages received today. In some embodiments, the first and second messages are the most recent unread messages. some embodiments, the first and second messages are the most recent messages received from VIP contacts (e.g., a list of specific contacts). In some embodiments, the first and second messages are the most recent messages from the user&#39;s most frequent contacts. 
     In some embodiments, the user input corresponds to ( 832 ) selection of the view mode affordance, and the second row is displayed in the expanded view mode after detecting the user input. In some embodiments, the expanded view shows a limited number of the second plurality of messages in the bundle of messages based on the category criterion. As one example, in  FIG. 5F , the second row representing the bundle of messages  504   b  is displayed in the expanded view mode in response to selection of the view mode affordance  514   b  in  FIG. 5D . For example, the horizontal orientation of the chevrons associated with the view mode affordance  514   b  in  FIG. 5D  indicate that the second row representing the bundle of messages  504   b  is displayed in the condensed view mode, and the vertical orientation of the chevrons associated with view mode affordance  514   b  in  FIG. 5F  indicate that the second row representing the bundle of messages  504   b  is displayed in the expanded view mode. 
     As another example, in  FIG. 5O , the second row representing the bundle of messages  5112   b  is displayed in the expanded view mode in response to selection of the view mode affordance  5114   b  in  FIG. 5N . For example, the horizontal orientation of the chevrons associated with the view mode affordance  5114   b  in  FIG. 5N  indicate that the second row representing the bundle of messages  5112   b  is displayed in the condensed view mode, and the vertical orientation of the chevrons associated with view mode affordance  5114   b  in  FIG. 5O  indicate that the second row representing the bundle of messages  5112   b  is displayed in the expanded view mode. 
     In some embodiments, the expanded view mode includes ( 834 ) an affordance provided to display the plurality of messages different from the two or more messages. In some embodiments, the expanded view of the bundle of messages represented by the second row includes: X unread messages or the X most recent messages, and an affordance for viewing all messages include in bundle of messages. In some embodiments, the expanded view mode shows a limited number of the second plurality of messages, and the balance of the second plurality of the messages are viewable by selecting the affordance. In some embodiments, the two or more messages include the second plurality of messages. 
     As one example, in  FIG. 5E , the bundle view  552  includes a messages affordance  517 , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes display of the unread messages included in the bundle of messages  504   b  or all messages included in the bundle of messages  504   b . As another example, in  FIG. 5F , the messages affordance  517  is displayed in the inbox folder view  502 . 
     As yet another example, in  FIG. 5O , the content pane  5120  includes a messages affordance  5117   a , which, when activated (e.g., with a contact), causes display of the unread messages included in the bundle of messages  5112   b  or all messages included in the bundle of messages  5112   b . Continuing with this example, in  FIG. 5P , the content pane  5120  displays all messages included in the bundle of message  5112   b  in response to selection of the messages affordance  5117   a  in  FIG. 5O . 
     In some embodiments, the expanded view of the bundle of messages represented by the second row includes: X unread or the X most recent messages, an affordance for viewing all messages include in bundle of messages, and a sub-bundle associated with a sub-category criterion in a condensed view. As one example, in  FIG. 5Q , a row representing a sub-bundle of messages  5132   b  that satisfy the travel criterion  5115   a  and also a Europe sub-criterion  5131  (e.g., messages with content related to European travel, hotels, airplane tickets, etc.) is displayed inline in the folders pane  5110 . Continuing with this example, in  FIG. 5R , additional information (e.g., the conversations/messages  5142   a  and  5142   b ) for the sub-bundle of messages  5132   b  is displayed inline in the inbox folder pane  5110  and the content  5144  for the conversation/message  5142   a  is displayed in the content pane  5120  in response to selection of the view mode affordance  5134   b  in  FIG. 5Q . For example, the horizontal orientation of the chevrons associated with the view mode affordance  5134   b  in  FIG. 5Q  indicate that the row representing the sub-bundle of messages  5132   b  is displayed in the condensed view mode, and the vertical orientation of the chevrons associated with view mode affordance  5134   b  in  FIG. 5R  indicate that the second row representing the sub-bundle of messages  5132   b  is displayed in the expanded view mode. 
     In some embodiments, the inbox view of the messaging application includes ( 836 ) a third row representing a third plurality of messages that satisfy a second category criterion different from the first category criterion. In some embodiments, the second category criterion corresponds to one of a sender type of the third plurality of messages or a content type of the third plurality of messages. For example,  FIG. 5N  shows a user interface for an electronic mail (email) and/or messaging application within the display area  501  of the device  100 . In  FIG. 5N , the user interface includes a folders pane  5110  and a content pane  5120 . As shown in  FIG. 5N , the folders pane  5110  includes: a first row that corresponds to a conversation  5112   a  (e.g., with one message); a second row that corresponds to a bundle of messages  5112   b  that satisfy a travel criterion  5115   a  (e.g., the first category criterion also herein called the first bundling criteria); a third row that corresponds to a conversation  5112   c  (e.g., with one message); and a fourth row that corresponds to a bundle of messages  5112   d  that satisfy a fashion criterion  5115   b  (e.g., the second category criterion also herein called the second bundling criteria). 
     In some embodiments, the inbox view is included in an inbox pane, and the device displays ( 838 ), on the display, a content pane adjacent to the inbox pane, where the content pane includes information associated with the conversation of related messages represented by the first row or the plurality of messages represented by the second row. For example,  FIG. 5Q  shows a user interface for an electronic mail (email) and/or messaging application within the display area  501  of the device  100 . In  FIG. 5Q , the user interface includes a folders pane  5110  and a content pane  5120 . As shown in  FIG. 5N , the folders pane  5110  corresponds to an inbox folder that includes electronic communications to and/or from the user of the device  100 . In  FIG. 5Q , the folders pane  5110  includes a second row that corresponds to a bundle of messages  5112   b  that satisfy the travel criterion  5115   a , and the content pane  5120  includes content  5138  for the conversation/message  5132   a  included in the bundle of messages  5112   b.    
     In some embodiments, the content pane includes ( 840 ) an indication that the information included in the content pane corresponds to the plurality of messages that do not meet the one or more conversation criteria represented by the second row. In some embodiments, the content pane includes a badge corresponding to the bundling category. In some embodiments, the content pane includes a stack of overlapping messages from the bundle of messages. For example, in  FIG. 5Q , the content pane  5120  includes an indicator (e.g., a badge or text description) of the travel criterion  5115   a . For example, in  FIG. 5Q , the conversation  5132   a  is displayed as a top message in a stack of messages  5139  associated with the bundle of messages  5112   b  that satisfy the travel criterion  5115   a.    
     In some embodiments, the information included in the content pane has ( 842 ) a different appearance for the plurality of messages that do not meet the one or more conversation criteria (e.g., stacked and obscuring each other), the conversation of related messages (e.g., displayed adjacent to each other and separated by message delimiters such as spaces or borders), and a message (e.g., displayed by itself). As one example, in  FIG. 5Q , the messages/conversations associated with the bundle of messages  5112   b  are displayed in a stack of messages  5139  in the content pane  5120  with the content  5138  of the conversation  5132   a  displayed on the top of the stack of messages  5139 . As another example, in  FIG. 6B , rows representing the messages  634   a  and  634   b  included in the conversation  612   a  are displayed in the content pane  620 . As yet example, in  FIG. 5N , the content  5122  of the messages/conversation  5122   a  is displayed in the content pane  5120 . 
     It should be understood that the particular order in which the operations in  FIGS. 8A-8C  have been described is merely example and is not intended to indicate that the described order is the only order in which the operations could be performed. One of ordinary skill in the art would recognize various ways to reorder the operations described herein. Additionally, it should be noted that details of other processes described herein with respect to other methods described herein (e.g., methods  900  and  1000 ) are also applicable in an analogous manner to method  800  described above with respect to  FIGS. 8A-8C . For example, the contacts, gestures, user interface objects, and focus selectors described above with reference to method  800  optionally have one or more of the characteristics of the contacts, gestures, user interface objects, and focus selectors described herein with reference to other methods described herein (e.g., methods  900  and  1000 ). For brevity, these details are not repeated here. 
       FIGS. 9A-9C  illustrate a flow diagram of a method  900  of filtering electronic communications in accordance with some embodiments. The method  900  is performed at an electronic device (e.g., the portable multifunction device  100  in  FIG. 1A , or the device  300  in  FIG. 3 ) with a one or more processors, non-transitory memory, a display, and an input device. In some embodiments, the display is a touch-screen display and the input device is on or integrated with the display. In some embodiments, the display is separate from the input device. Some operations in method  900  are, optionally, combined and/or the order of some operations is, optionally, changed. 
     As described below, the method  900  provides an intuitive way to filter electronic communications. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user when filtering electronic communications, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated electronic devices, enabling a user to filter electronic communications faster and more efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges. 
     The device concurrently displays ( 902 ), on the display, a plurality of representations of electronic communications associated with a first grouping (e.g., a first folder or first tag), and a filter affordance (e.g., a filter icon within a portion of a title bar or chrome region) that corresponds to a set of one or more filter criteria. In some embodiments, the electronic communications include email conversations, email messages, instant message conversations, instant messages, SMSs, MMSs, talk-to-text, and/or the like. 
     As one example,  FIG. 5A  shows a folder view  502  associated with an inbox folder for an electronic mail (email) and/or messaging application within the display area  501  of the device  100 . In  FIG. 5A , the inbox folder view  502  includes a plurality of rows representing a conversation  504   a  (e.g., with two messages), a bundle of messages  504   b  that satisfy an updates criterion  515 , a conversation  504   c  (e.g., with a single message), and a conversation  504   d  (e.g., with a single message). In  FIG. 5A , the inbox folder view  502  also includes a filter affordance  518   a.    
     As another example,  FIG. 5N  shows a user interface for an electronic mail (email) and/or messaging application within the display area  501  of the device  100 . In  FIG. 5N , the user interface includes a folders pane  5110  and a content pane  5120 . As shown in  FIG. 5N , the folders pane  5110  includes rows representing a conversation  5112   a  (e.g., with one message), a bundle of messages  5112   b  that satisfy a travel criterion  5115   a , a conversation  5112   c  (e.g., with one message), and a bundle of messages  5112   d  that satisfy a fashion criterion  5115   b . In  FIG. 5N , the folders pane  5110  also includes the filter affordance  518   a . As shown in  FIG. 5N , the content pane  5120  includes content  5122  for the conversation  5112   a.    
     As yet another example,  FIG. 6A  shows a window  602  for an electronic mail (email) and/or messaging application within the display area  601  that includes a folders pane  610  and a content pane  620 . As shown in  FIG. 6A , the folders pane  610  includes rows representing a conversation  612   a  (e.g., with two or more messages), a conversation  612   b  (e.g., with one message), a conversation  612   c  (e.g., with one message), a conversation  612   d  (e.g., with one message), a conversation  612   e  (e.g., with one message), and a conversation  612   a  (e.g., with one message) (partially occluded). In  FIG. 6A , the folders pane  610  also includes the filter affordance  616   b . As shown in  FIG. 6A , the content pane  620  includes content  622  for the conversation  612   b.    
     In some embodiments, satisfying a respective criterion from among the set of one or more filter criteria includes ( 904 ) determining that electronic communications associated with the second set of representations of electronic communications are categorized as important based on past user actions with electronic communications. In some embodiments, a message is automatically categorized or identified as important when the message is sent by a VIP sender (e.g., a sender on a list of specified senders) or the user frequently communicates with the sender. In some embodiments, a message is automatically categorized or identified as important when the message is starred or marked as an urgent message. In some embodiments, a message is automatically categorized or identified as important when the message is sent in reply to a starred or urgent message. In some embodiments, a message is automatically categorized or identified as important when the message is sent directly or only to the user (e.g., the message is not a bulk/spam message and the message is not associated with a list server or a subscription). In some embodiments, a message is automatically categorized or identified as important when the message has a subject or content that includes one or more words that match a list of predefined words (e.g., urgent, important, time sensitive, etc.). As one example, in  FIG. 5I , the filters pane  582  includes the important filter  586   b . As another example, in  FIG. 6C , the filters menu  640  includes the important filter  642   b.    
     While concurrently displaying the plurality of representations of electronic communications and the filter affordance, the device detects ( 906 ) a selection input, via the input device, that corresponds to selection of the filter affordance. As one example,  FIG. 5H  shows selection of the filter affordance  518   a  with a contact  580 . As another example,  FIG. 5K  shows selection of the filter affordance  518   a  with a contact  596 . 
     In response to detecting the selection input, and in accordance with a determination that the selection input corresponds to a first input type (e.g., a one finger tap, a one finger light press gesture, a single click with a focus selector, or the like), the device ( 908 ): ceases to display a first set of representations of electronic communications (e.g., the first set representations corresponds to one or more electronic communications) from among the plurality of representations of electronic communications associated with the first grouping that do not match the set of one or more filter criteria; displays a second set of representations of electronic communications (e.g., the second set representations corresponds to one or more electronic communications) from among the plurality of representations of electronic communications associated with the first grouping that match the set of one or more filter criteria; and displays an indication of the set of one or more filter criteria that have been applied to the electronic communications associated with the first grouping. As such, according to some embodiments, the user is able to quickly filter the first grouping to provide a more tailored interface that is less cluttered and includes more of the messages that the user wants to see and fewer of the messages that the user has elected to filter out, while still providing the user with a simple way to view the messages that have been filtered out. 
     In some embodiments, ceasing to display the first set of representations includes eliding a subset of the previously displayed plurality of representations of electronic communications associated with the first grouping that do not match the set of one or more filter criteria. In some embodiments, displaying the second set of representations includes maintaining display of a subset of the previously displayed plurality of representations of electronic communications associated with the first grouping that match the filter criteria. In some embodiments, the set of one or more filter criteria will continue to apply to the first grouping until the user of the device again selects the filter affordance to toggle off the set of one or more filter criteria. For example, the set of one or more filter criteria will continue to apply even if the user of the device selects a second grouping. 
     As one example,  FIG. 5L  shows the filtered inbox folder view  5114  in response to the selection input of the filter affordance  518   a  in  FIG. 5K  that corresponds to the first input type (e.g., a one finger tap gesture). According to some embodiments, each of the rows in the filtered inbox folder view  5114  in  FIG. 5L  represents one or more messages (e.g., a bundle of messages, or a conversation with a single message or a plurality of messages) that satisfy the set of filter criteria (e.g., the important filter  586   b  and the unread filter  586   e ). 
     As another example,  FIG. 6D  shows the filtered inbox folder in the folders pane  610  in response to the selection input of the filter affordance  616   b  in  FIG. 6B  that corresponds to the first input type (e.g., a single click with the focus selector  603 ). According to some embodiments, each of the rows of the filtered inbox folder within the folders pane  610  in  FIG. 6D  represents a conversation that satisfies the set of filter criteria (e.g., the flagged filter  642   d ). 
     In some embodiments, the indication of the set of one or more filter criteria includes ( 910 ) a description of the set of one or more filter criteria adjacent to the filter affordance. In some embodiments, the indication includes a text description of the set of filters applied to the current folder as shown in  FIGS. 5L and 6D . In some embodiments, the indication includes one or more distinct icons fort the set of filters applied to the current folder. As one example, in  FIG. 5L , the filtered inbox folder view  5114  includes an indication  598  of the set of filters applied to the current folder (e.g., the important filter  586   b  and the unread filter  586   e ). As another example, in  FIG. 6D , the filter affordance  616   b  includes an indication of the set of filters applied to the current folder (e.g., the flagged filter  642   d ). As such, according to some embodiments, the user is able to keep track of the filter(s) applied to the first grouping and is alerted to the fact that a filter has been applied to the current view. 
     In some embodiments, the set of one or more filter criteria includes ( 912 ) two or more filter criteria. For example, in  FIG. 5L , the filtered inbox folder view  5114  corresponds to the important filter  586   b  and the unread filter  586   e  being applied to the inbox folder. 
     In some embodiments, the second set of representations of electronic communications that match the set of one or more filter criteria are ordered ( 914 ) based on how many of the two or more filter criteria the corresponding electronic communications match. According to some embodiments, when the set of filter criteria includes two filters, electronic communications that match two criteria are sorted before electronic communications that match only one of the two filter criteria. For example, the second set of representations of electronic communications includes: a first subset of representations with electronic communications that match Filter A AND Filter B; a second subset of representations with electronic communications that match Filter A ANDNOT Filter B; and a third subset of representations with electronic communications that match Filter B ANDNOT Filter A. In this example, the second set of representations is sorted such that the first subset of representations is displayed before the second subset of representations, which is displayed before the third subset of representations. 
     In some embodiments, the second set of representations of electronic communications that match the set of one or more filter criteria are displayed in an inbox pane, and the device concurrently displays ( 916 ), on the display, a content pane adjacent to the inbox pane, where the content pane includes information corresponding to a respective electronic communication that matches the set of one or more filter criteria. For example,  FIG. 6D  shows the filtered inbox folder in the folders pane  610  and the content  652  for the conversation  612   c  included in the filtered inbox folder displayed in the content pane  620  in response to the selection input of the filter affordance  616   b  in  FIG. 6B  that corresponds to the first input type (e.g., a single click with the focus selector  603 ). 
     In some embodiments, in response to detecting the selection input, and in accordance with a determination that the selection input corresponds to the first input type, the device displays ( 918 ), on the display, an indication of a portion of the first set of representations of electronic communications that have been elided, where the indication is displayed between first and second subsets of the second set of representations of electronic communications. As one example,  FIG. 5L  shows an expansion affordance  5102   a  that separates the conversation  504   a  the conversation  504   f  within the filtered inbox view  5114 . For example, the first set of one or more messages are elided due to not satisfying the set of filter criteria. As another example,  FIG. 6D  shows an expansion affordance  654  above the conversation  612   c  in the folders pane  610  associated with the filter inbox folder. For example, the set of one or more messages are elided due to not satisfying the set of filter criteria (e.g., the flagged filter  642   d ). As such, according to some embodiments, the expansion affordance provides a visual queue of electronic communications that have been elided in a non-obtrusive manner. 
     In some embodiments, displaying the second set of representations of electronic communications from among the plurality of representations of electronic communications associated with the first grouping that match the set of one or more filter criteria includes ( 920 ): displaying a first subset of representations of electronic communications that match the set of one or more filter criteria and a second subset of representations of electronic communications that match the set of one or more filter criteria from among the plurality of representations of electronic communications associated with the first grouping; and displaying an expansion affordance between and adjacent to the first and second subsets of representations of electronic communications, where the expansion affordance is provided to display a portion of the first set of representations of electronic communications that do not match the set of one or more filter criteria. As one example,  FIG. 5L  shows an expansion affordance  5102   a  that separates the conversation  504   a  the conversation  504   f  within the filtered inbox view  5114 . According to some embodiments, the expansion affordance  5102   a  indicates that a first set of one or more messages with timestamps between the timestamp associated with the conversation  504   a  and the timestamp associated with the conversation  504   f  have been elided. For example, the first set of one or more messages are elided due to not satisfying the set of filter criteria. When activated (e.g., with a contact), the expansion affordance  5102   a  causes the first set of one or more elided messages to be displayed between the conversation  504   a  and the conversation  504   f . As such, according to some embodiments, the user is able to quickly view representations of electronic communications that have been elided in a non-obtrusive manner. 
     As another example,  FIG. 6D  shows an expansion affordance  654  above the conversation  612   c  in the folders pane  610  associated with the filter inbox folder. According to some embodiments, the expansion affordance  654  indicates that a set of one or more messages with timestamps before the timestamp associated with the conversation  612   c  have been elided. For example, the set of one or more messages are elided due to not satisfying the set of filter criteria (e.g., the flagged filter  642   d ). When activated (e.g., with the focus selector  603 ), the expansion affordance  654  causes the set of one or more elided messages to be displayed above the conversation  612   c.    
     In some embodiments, electronic communications in the portion of the first set of representations of electronic communications that do not match the set of one or more filter criteria are associated ( 922 ) with timestamps between timestamps associated with electronic communications in the first and second subsets of representations of electronic communications that match the one or more filter criteria. As one example,  FIG. 5L  shows an expansion affordance  5102   a  that separates the conversation  504   a  the conversation  504   f  within the filtered inbox view  5114 . According to some embodiments, the expansion affordance  5102   a  indicates that a first set of one or more messages with timestamps between the timestamp associated with the conversation  504   a  and the timestamp associated with the conversation  504   f  have been elided. 
     In some embodiments, the device ( 924 ): detects a second selection input that corresponds to selection of the expansion affordance; and, in response to detecting the second selection input, replaces display of the expansion affordance, on the display, with the portion of the first set of representations of electronic communications that do not match the set of one or more filter criteria, where the portion of the first set of representations of electronic communications that do not match the set of one or more filter criteria are displayed between and adjacent to the first and second subsets of representations of electronic communications that match the one or more filter criteria. According to some embodiments, selection of the expansion affordance causes a group of elided messages with timestamps between the first and second subsets of representations that match the filter criteria to be displayed. As such, according to some embodiments, the user is able to quickly view representations of electronic communications that have been elided in a non-obtrusive manner. For example,  FIG. 5M  shows a first set of elided messages displayed in the filtered inbox view  5114  in response to selection of the expansion affordance  5102   a  in  FIG. 5L . As shown in  FIG. 5M , the first set of elided messages corresponding to the conversations  504   e ,  504   c , and  504   d  that do not match the filter criteria is displayed between the conversations  504   a  and  504   f  that match the filter criteria. 
     In some embodiments, selection of the expansion affordance causes a group of elided messages with timestamps before the second set of representations of electronic communications that match the filter criteria to be displayed. For example, in  FIG. 6D , the expansion affordance  654  is displayed above the conversation  612   c  in the folders pane  610  associated with the filtered inbox folder. In this example, selection of the expansion affordance  654  would cause elided messages with timestamps before the conversation  612   c  to be displayed above the conversation  612   c  within the folders pane  610 . In some embodiments, selection of the expansion affordance causes a group of elided messages with timestamps after the second set of representations of electronic communications that match the filter criteria to be displayed. For example, in  FIG. 6E , the expansion affordance  666  is displayed above the conversation  662   d  in the folders pane  610  associated with the filtered folder A. In this example, selection of the expansion affordance  666  would cause elided messages with timestamps after the conversation  662   d  to be displayed below the conversation  662   d  within the folders pane  610 . 
     In some embodiments, in response to detecting the selection input, and in accordance with a determination that the selection input corresponds to a second input type (e.g., a one finger long press gesture, a one finger deep press gesture, a double click with a focus selector, or the like), the device displays ( 926 ), on the display, a filter selection menu overlaid on the plurality of representations of electronic communications associated with the first grouping. As such, according to some embodiments, the user is able to quickly change the filter criteria from within the current inbox view. As one example,  FIG. 5I  shows the filters pane  582  replacing display of the inbox folder view  502  in response to the selection input of the filter affordance  518   a  in  FIG. 5H  that corresponds to the second input type (e.g., a one finger long press gesture). According to some embodiments, the filters pane  582  replaces display of the inbox folder view  502  when a one finger long press gesture is detected over the filter affordance  518   a  while the set of filter criteria are active (e.g., currently applied to the inbox folder). 
     As another example,  FIG. 6C  shows the filters menu  640  overlaid on the window  602  in response to selection input of the filter affordance  616   b  in  FIG. 6B  that corresponds to the second input type (e.g., a double click with the focus selector  603 ). According to some embodiments, the filters menu  640  is overlaid on the window  602  when a one finger long press gesture is detected over the filter affordance  616   b  while the set of filter criteria are active (e.g., currently applied to the inbox folder). 
     In some embodiments, the filter selection menu is provided ( 928 ) to at least one of enable or disable one or more filters among a plurality of filters included in the filter menu. In some embodiments, the filter selection menu enables the user is able to turn enable or disable any of the filters in the filter menu. For example, in  FIG. 5H , the filters pane  582  includes: an inbox filter  586   a , an important filter  586   b , a VIP filter  586   c , a flagged filter  586   d , an unread filter  586   e , a “To or CC” filter  586   f , and an attachments filter  586   g .  FIGS. 5I-5J  also show a sequence in which the filter criteria are changed to include the important filter  586   b  in addition to the unread filter  586   e . As shown in  FIG. 5J , the set of filter criteria includes the important filter  586   b  and the unread filter  586   e  as indicated by the icons  588   a  and  588   b.    
     In another example, in  FIG. 6C , the filters menu  640  includes: an inbox filter  642   a , an important filter  642   b , a VIP filter  642   c , a flagged filter  642   d , an unread filter  642   e , a “To or CC” filter  642   f , and an attachments filter  642   g . As shown in  FIG. 6C , the set of filter criteria includes the flagged filter  642   d  as indicated by the icon  646   a  associated with the unread filter  642   e.    
     In some embodiments, the filter selection menu includes ( 930 ) an affordance provided to add a custom filter to the plurality of filters included in the filter menu. As one example, the filters pane  582  in  FIGS. 5I-5J  includes also includes a create custom filter affordance  590  for creating and adding a custom filter to the filter pane  582 . As another example, the filters menu  640  in  FIG. 6C  also includes a create custom filter affordance  644  for creating and adding a custom filter to the filters menu  640 . 
     In some embodiments, after detecting the selection input, the device detects ( 932 ) a sequence of one or more user inputs, via the input device, that correspond to displaying a second plurality of representations of electronic communications associated with a second grouping, and, in response to detecting the sequence of one or more user inputs, the device displays, on the display, a third set of representations of electronic communications from among the second plurality of representations of electronic communications associated with the second grouping that match the set of one or more filter criteria and the indication of the set of one or more filter criteria that have been applied to the electronic communications associated with the second grouping. In  FIG. 6D , the set of filter criteria (e.g., the flagged filter  642   d ) is applied to the inbox folder (e.g., the filtered inbox folder is displayed in the folders pane  610 ). For example, a user changes the grouping (e.g., via the sequence of one or more user inputs) from the inbox folder to the folder A. Continuing with this example, FIG.  6 E shows the set of filter criteria (e.g., the flagged filter  642   d ) applied to the folder A (e.g., the filtered folder A is displayed in the folders pane  610 ). As such, when the set of filter criteria are applied to a first grouping and the grouping changes from the first grouping to a second grouping, the set of filter criteria are also applied to the second grouping. This, for example, allows the user to maintain the filter criteria when switching between groupings. 
     In some embodiments, while displaying the third set of representations of electronic communications, the device detects ( 934 ) a second selection input, via the input device, that corresponds to selection of the filter affordance, and, in response to detecting the second selection input, and in accordance with a determination that the selection input corresponds to the first input type, the device concurrently displays, on the display, the third set of representations of electronic communications from among the second plurality of representations of electronic communications associated with the second grouping that match the set of one or more filter criteria and a fourth set of representations of electronic communications from among the second plurality of representations of electronic communications associated with the second grouping that do not match the set of one or more filter criteria. According to some embodiments, when the set of filter criteria are currently active, the set of filter criteria are deactivated by a selection input of the filter affordance that corresponds to the first input type (e.g., a one finger tap gesture, a one finger light press gesture, a single click with a focus selector, or the like). As such, according to some embodiments, the user is able to quickly toggle on/off the application of the filter criteria to the current grouping. 
     For example, the set of filter criteria are no longer applied to the folder A and  FIG. 6F  shows the (unfiltered) folder A in the folders pane  610  in response to selection input of the filter affordance  616   b  in  FIG. 6E  that corresponds to the first input type (e.g., a single click with the focus selector  603 ). As shown in  FIG. 6F , the filter affordance  616   b  indicates that no filters are currently applied to folder A, as compared to  FIG. 6E  where the flagged filter  642   d  is applied to folder A. 
     It should be understood that the particular order in which the operations in  FIGS. 9A-9C  have been described is merely example and is not intended to indicate that the described order is the only order in which the operations could be performed. One of ordinary skill in the art would recognize various ways to reorder the operations described herein. Additionally, it should be noted that details of other processes described herein with respect to other methods described herein (e.g., methods  800  and  1000 ) are also applicable in an analogous manner to method  900  described above with respect to  FIGS. 9A-9C . For example, the contacts, gestures, user interface objects, and focus selectors described above with reference to method  900  optionally have one or more of the characteristics of the contacts, gestures, user interface objects, and focus selectors described herein with reference to other methods described herein (e.g., methods  800  and  1000 ). For brevity, these details are not repeated here. 
       FIGS. 10A-10C  illustrate a flow diagram of a method  1000  of displaying affordances for performing corresponding actions within a conversation view in accordance with some embodiments. The method  1000  is performed at an electronic device (e.g., the portable multifunction device  100  in  FIG. 1A , or the device  300  in  FIG. 3 ) with a one or more processors, non-transitory memory, a display, and an input device. In some embodiments, the display is a touch-screen display and the input device is on or integrated with the display. In some embodiments, the display is separate from the input device. Some operations in method  1000  are, optionally, combined and/or the order of some operations is, optionally, changed. 
     As described below, the method  1000  provides an intuitive way to display affordances for performing corresponding actions within a conversation view. The method reduces the cognitive burden on a user when displaying affordances for performing corresponding actions within a conversation view, thereby creating a more efficient human-machine interface. For battery-operated electronic devices, enabling a user to display affordances for performing corresponding actions within a conversation view faster and more efficiently conserves power and increases the time between battery charges. 
     The device displays ( 1002 ), on the display, a conversation view of a plurality of messages within a first pane of a messaging application, where the conversation view includes a first message region of a portion of a first message of the plurality of messages and a second message region of a portion of a second message of the plurality of messages. In some embodiments, the plurality of messages in the conversation satisfy one or more conversation criteria (e.g., similar participants, subject, content, etc.). In some embodiments, the user is able to scroll within the conversation view to view, for example, a third message region associated with a third message included in the conversation. In some embodiments, when the second message region is partially occluded, the user is able to scroll within the conversation view to view the balance of the second message region. As such, in this example, the entirety of the first message region is displayed within the conversation view, and a portion of the second message is displayed in the conversation view with the remainder occluded. For example, the first and second message regions include a preview or snippet of the associated messages. 
       FIG. 7B , for example, shows a conversation view  730  (e.g., associated with the conversation  704   a  in  FIG. 7A ) displayed within the display area of the device  100 . As shown in  FIG. 7B , the conversation view  730  includes: a header region  731   a , a content region  731   b , a toolbar region  731   c , and a subject bar  734 . In  FIG. 7B , the content region  731   b  includes: a first message region  732   a  associated with a first message in the conversation  704   a ; a second message region  732   b  associated with a second message in the conversation  704   a ; and a portion of a third message region  732   c  associated with a third message in the conversation  704   a  (sometimes collectively referred to as the “message regions  732 ”). For example, if a user scrolls the conversation view  730 , the balance of the third message region  732   c  is displayed within the content region  731   b . For example,  FIGS. 7B-7C  show a sequence in which the user scrolls within the conversation view  730  in response to detecting an upward swipe gesture in  FIG. 7B . 
     In some embodiments, the conversation view includes ( 1004 ) a toolbar region including a plurality of affordances provided to perform corresponding actions on a most recent message among the plurality of messages. In some embodiments, the messages within the conversation view are sorted in reverse chronological order. As such, in  FIG. 7B , for example, the first message associated with the message region  732   a  is the most recent message in the conversation  704   a . In some embodiments, the messages within the conversation view are sorted in chronological order. As such, in  FIG. 7B , for example, the first message associated with the message region  732   a  is the oldest message in the conversation  704   a . According to some embodiments, with reference to  FIGS. 7A-7K , the toolbar region  731   c  includes: a flag affordance  728   a  for flagging a respective message in the conversation  704   a ; a move folder affordance  728   b  for moving the respective message in the conversation  704   a  from the inbox folder to another folder; an archive affordance  728   c  for archiving the respective message in the conversation  704   a ; a reply affordance  728   d  for replying to or forwarding the respective message in the conversation  704   a ; and a draft affordance  728   e  for drafting a new message. In some embodiments, the respective message is the most recent message within the conversation  704   a . In some embodiments, the respective message is the top-most message that is fully displayed within the conversation view  730 . 
     In some embodiments, a respective dimension (e.g., the height) of the first message region is ( 1006 ) based at least in part on an amount of content associated with the first message, and a respective dimension (e.g., the height) of the second message region is based at least in part on an amount of content associated with the second message. As shown in  FIG. 7B , according to some embodiments, a respective dimension (e.g., the height) of each of the message regions  732  is based on the amount of content for the corresponding message. For example, in  FIG. 7B , a respective dimension (e.g., the height) of the first message region  732   a  has a value  733   a , and the respective dimension (e.g., the height) of the second message region  732   b  has a value  733   b . In this example, the value  733   b  is greater than the value  733   a  because the first message associated with the first message region  732   a  has less content (e.g., lines of text) than the second message associated with the second message region  732   b.    
     In some embodiments, the device displays ( 1008 ), on the display, a list view including a plurality of rows representing a plurality of conversations in a second pane adjacent to the first pane that includes the conversation view. For example, the plurality of conversations corresponds to a particular grouping such as a specified mailbox, folder, or tag. In some embodiments, the list view and the conversation view are concurrently displayed side-by-side to enable the user to select between different conversations to be shown in the conversation view. As such, for example, the device  100  displays a second pane with a list of conversations adjacent to a first pane including a conversation view corresponding to a conversation selected within the list of conversations. 
       FIGS. 7L-7P , for example show a dual-pane user interface associated with an electronic mail (email) and/or messaging application that includes a first pane  7120  and a second pane  7110  displayed within the display area of the device  100 . In  FIG. 7L , for example, the second pane  7110  includes a folder view  7140  for an inbox folder. As shown in  FIG. 7L , the inbox folder view  7140  includes a plurality of rows representing conversation  704   a , message  704   b , message  704   c , and conversation  704   d  within the inbox folder. In  FIG. 7L , the conversation  704   a  is displayed in the foreground or “in focus” as indicated by the vertical orientation of the view mode affordance  7111   a  and the shading of the first row within the second pane  7110 . In  FIG. 7L , for example, the first pane  7120  includes a conversation view  7150  of the conversation  704   a , which is displayed in the foreground in the second pane  7110 . 
     The device detects ( 1010 ) a user input, via the input device, that corresponds to selecting the first message region within the conversation view. As one example,  FIG. 7E  shows a right-to-left swipe gesture within the second message region  732   b . As another example,  FIG. 7H  shows a left-to-right swipe gesture within the second message region  732   b . As yet another example,  FIG. 7J  shows a contact  764  selecting the “see more” affordance  738   b  within the second message region  732   b.    
     In response to detecting the user input selecting the first message region, and in accordance with a determination that the user input satisfies a first set of input criteria (e.g., a horizontal swipe within the message, selection of an actions affordance within the message region, or the like), the device displays ( 1012 ), on the display, one or more affordances provided to perform corresponding actions on the first message. In some embodiments, the first set of input criteria is satisfied when an actions affordance is selected within the first message region. In some embodiments, the first set of input criteria is satisfied when a horizontal swipe is detected within the first message region. As such, according to some embodiments, the user is able to quickly access options for performing actions on a message from within the conversation view, which saves the user time and effort and also conserves power. 
     As one example,  FIGS. 7C-7D  shows a sequence in which a first set of affordances  746   a ,  746   b , and  746   c  is displayed within a first action region  744  in response to selection of the actions affordance  738   c  within the second message region  732   b  in  FIG. 7C . As another example,  FIGS. 7E-7F  show sequence in which the first set of affordances  746   a ,  746   b , and  746   c  is displayed within a first action region  744  in response to detecting the right-to-left swipe gesture within the second message region  732   b  in  FIG. 7E . As yet another example,  FIGS. 7H-7I  show a sequence in which a second set of one or more affordances including the affordance  762  is displayed within the second action region  760  in response to detecting the left-to-right swipe gesture within the second message region  732   b  in  FIG. 7H . 
     In some embodiments, satisfying the first input criteria includes ( 1014 ) detecting a horizontal swipe gesture within the first message region associated with a magnitude that is less than a threshold distance. In some embodiments, the first set of input criteria is satisfied when a horizontal swipe that is less than a threshold distance is detected within the first message region. For example, a left-to-right or a right-to-left swipe gesture with a magnitude less than 33%, 50%, 100%, etc. of the width of the message region. As one example,  FIGS. 7E-7F  show a sequence in which the first set of affordances  746   a ,  746   b , and  746   c  is displayed within the conversation view  730  in response to detecting the right-to-left swipe gesture with a magnitude that is less than the threshold distance within the second message region  732   b  in  FIG. 7E . As another example,  FIGS. 7H-7I  show a sequence in which the second set of one or more affordances including the affordance  762  is displayed within the conversation view  730  in response to detecting the left-to-right swipe gesture with a magnitude that is less than the threshold distance within the second message region  732   b  in  FIG. 7H . 
     In some embodiments, satisfying the first input criteria includes ( 1016 ) detecting a user input that corresponds to selecting an actions affordance within the first message region. For example,  FIGS. 7C-7D  shows a sequence in which the first set of affordances  746   a ,  746   b , and  746   c  is displayed within the conversation view  730  in response to selection of the actions affordance  738   c  within the second message region  732   b  in  FIG. 7C . 
     In some embodiments, displaying the one or more affordances includes ( 1018 ): in accordance with a determination that the user input is associated with a first direction (e.g., right-to-left): displaying, on the display, a first set of one or more affordances adjacent to a first side of the message region, where the first set of one or more affordances is provided to perform corresponding actions on the first message; and sliding the first message region in the first direction, where at least a portion of first message region associated with a second side of the first message region opposite the first side is occluded. As one example, if an actions affordance is selected within the first message region, a first set of one or more affordances including reply, move, and trash is slid in from the right edge of the conversation view and the first message region is proportionately slid left with a portion being occluded (e.g., as shown in  FIGS. 7C-7D ). As another example, if a right-to-left swipe gesture is detected within the first message region, a first set of one or more affordances including reply, move, and trash is slid in from the right edge of the conversation view and the first message region is proportionately slid left with a portion being occluded (e.g., as shown in  FIGS. 7E-7F  and  FIG. 7L-7M ). In some embodiments, one or more of the first set of one or more affordances is customizable. In one example, the rightmost or middle affordance is customizable. As such, according to some embodiments, the user is able to quickly access a first set of one or more options from within the conversation view, which saves the user time and effort and also conserves power. 
     In some embodiments, the device ( 1020 ): detects a subsequent user input, via the input device, that corresponds to selecting a respective affordance from among the first set of one or more affordances; and, in response to detecting the subsequent user input selecting the respective affordance, displays, on the display, one or more options associated with the action that corresponds to the respective affordance. For example, the subsequent user input corresponds to a one finger tap gesture, a two finger tap gesture, a vertical swipe gesture, or the like over the respective affordance. As one example, if the user selects a reply affordance, a menu of reply options (e.g., reply, reply all, forward, and/or the like) slides up from the bottom edge of the display area (e.g., as shown in  FIGS. 7F-7G ). 
     In some embodiments, displaying the one or more affordances includes ( 1022 ): in accordance with a determination that the user input is associated with a second direction (e.g., left-to-right): displaying, on the display, a second set of one or more affordances adjacent to a second side of the message region, where the second set of one or more affordances is provided to perform corresponding actions on the first message; and sliding the first message region in the second direction, where at least a portion of first message region associated with a first side of the first message region opposite the second side is occluded. As one example, if a left-to-right swipe gesture is detected within the first message region, a second set of one or more affordances including mark as read or mark as unread is slid in from the left edge of the conversation view and the first message region is proportionately slid right with a portion being occluded (e.g., as shown in  FIGS. 7H-7I  and  FIG. 7N-7O ). In some embodiments, the second set of one or more affordances is customizable. As such, according to some embodiments, the user is able to quickly access a second set of one or more options from within the conversation view, which saves the user time and effort and also conserves power. 
     In some embodiments, displaying the one or more affordances includes ( 1024 ) maintaining display of the second message region within the conversation view. In some embodiments, continue to display at least a portion of the second message region as displayed prior to detecting the user input. As one example, with reference to  FIGS. 7E-7F , the first message region  732   a  and the third message region  732   c  maintain their respective positions after the right-to-left swipe gesture in  FIG. 7E . As another example, with reference to  FIGS. 7H-7I , the first message region  732   a  and the third message region  732   c  maintain their respective positions after the left-to-right swipe gesture in  FIG. 7H . As yet another example, with reference to  FIGS. 7L-7M , the second message region  732   b  and the third message region  732   c  maintain their respective positions after the right-to-left swipe gesture in  FIG. 7L . As yet another example, with reference to  FIGS. 7N-7O , the second message region  732   b  and the third message region  732   c  maintain their respective positions after the left-to-right swipe gesture in  FIG. 7N . 
     In response to detecting the user input selecting the first message region, and in accordance with a determination that the user input satisfies a second set of input criteria (e.g., a finger tap gesture within a header of the message region, selection of a “see more” affordance, or the like), the device replaces display of ( 1026 ) the conversation view with a message view that corresponds to the first message. As such, for example, show the selected message in a message view that replaces the conversation view.  FIGS. 7J-7K , for example, show a sequence in which a message view  770  of the second message within the conversation  704   a  that corresponds to the second message region  732   b  replaces display of the conversation view  730  in response to selection of the “see more” affordance  738   b  within the second message region  732   b  in  FIG. 7J . 
     In some embodiments, satisfying the second input criteria includes ( 1028 ) detecting a user input that corresponds to selecting a header sub-region of the first message region. In some embodiments, the second set of criteria are satisfied when a header of the first message region is selected. For example, with reference to  FIG. 7B , if a contact is detected over the header sub-region  731   b  of the first message region  732   a  (not shown), a message view with the contents of the first message corresponding to the first message region  732   a  replaces display of the conversation view  730 . 
     In some embodiments, satisfying the second input criteria includes ( 1030 ) detecting a user input that corresponds to selecting a “see more” affordance within the first message region. In some embodiments, the second set of criteria are satisfied when a “see more” affordance within the first message region is selected (e.g., as shown in  FIGS. 7J-7K ). 
     In some embodiments, in response to detecting the user input, and in accordance with a determination that the user input satisfies a third set of input criteria, the device performs ( 1032 ) a predefined action on the first message. As one example, if a left-to-right swipe gesture is detected within the first message region that is greater than a threshold distance (e.g., 33%, 50%, 100%, etc. of the width of the message region), a predefined action associated with one of the first set of one or more affordances is performed on the first message that corresponds to the first message region (e.g., the first message is moved to the trash). As another example, if a right-to-left swipe gesture is detected within the first message region that is greater than a threshold distance (e.g., 33%, 50%, 100%, etc. of the width of the message region), a predefined action associated with one of the second set of one or more affordances is performed on the first message that corresponds to the first message region (e.g., the first message is marked as read or marked as unread). 
     In some embodiments, satisfying the third input criteria includes ( 1034 ) detecting a horizontal swipe gesture within the first message region associated with a magnitude that is greater than a threshold distance. According to some embodiments, the third set of criteria are satisfied when a magnitude of a horizontal swipe gesture within the first message region is greater than the threshold distance (e.g., 33%, 50%, 100%, etc. of the width of the message region). 
     In some embodiments, the device detects ( 1036 ) a second user input, via the input device, corresponding to the second message region within the conversation view. In response to detecting the second user input, and in accordance with a determination that the second user input satisfies the first set of input criteria (e.g., a lateral swipe within the message, selection of an actions affordance within the message region, or the like), the device displays one or more affordances provided to perform corresponding actions to the second message. In response to detecting the second user input, and in accordance with a determination that the second user input satisfies the second set of input criteria (e.g., a finger tap gesture within a header of the message region, selection of a “see more” affordance, or the like), the device replaces display of the conversation view with a message view that corresponds on the second message. As such, for example, the user is able to similarly interact with any message within the conversation view. In  FIGS. 7B-7K , for example, the user interacts with the second message region  732   b  that corresponds to a second message within the conversation  704   a . In  FIGS. 7L-7O , for example, the user interacts with the first message region  732   a  that corresponds to a first message within the conversation  704   a . As such, according to some embodiments, the user is able to quickly access options for performing actions on a message by interacting with any of the message regions in the conversation view, which saves the user time and effort and also conserves power. 
     In some embodiments, prior to displaying the conversation view within the first pane of the messaging application, the device ( 1038 ): displays, on the display, a mailbox view that includes a plurality of representations of corresponding to one or more messages and one or more conversations, where the plurality of representations have a same size (e.g., rows for messages and/or conversations with a same height in a list view); and detects a second user input, via the input device, that corresponds to selecting a respective representation from among the plurality of representations. In response to detecting the second user input selecting the respective representation, and in accordance with a determination that respective representation corresponds to a message, the device replaces display of the mailbox view with a message view that corresponds to the message associated with the respective representation. In response to detecting the second user input selecting the respective representation, and in accordance with a determination that respective representation corresponds to a conversation, the device replaces display of the mailbox view with the conversation view that corresponds to the conversation associated with the respective representation, where the conversation includes the plurality of messages. 
       FIGS. 7A-7B , for example, show a sequence in which a conversation view  730  for a conversation  704   a  replaces display of the inbox folder view  702  in response to selection of the first row corresponding to the conversation  704   a  in  FIG. 7A . As shown in  FIG. 7A , a respective dimension (e.g., the height) of each of the rows in the inbox folder view  702  has the same value  703 . In contrast, as shown in  FIG. 7B , the respective dimension (e.g., the height) of each of the message regions  732  is based on the amount of content for the corresponding message. In  FIG. 7B , the respective dimension (e.g., the height) of the first message region  732   a  has a value  733   a , and the respective dimension (e.g., the height) of the second message region  732   b  has a value  733   b . In this example, the value  733   b  is greater than the value  733   a  because the first message associated with the first message region  732   a  has less content (e.g., lines of text) than the second message associated with the second message region  732   b.    
     It should be understood that the particular order in which the operations in  FIGS. 10A-10C  have been described is merely example and is not intended to indicate that the described order is the only order in which the operations could be performed.

In response to detecting the second user input selecting the respective representation, and in accordance with a determination that respective representation corresponds to a message, the processing unit  1308  is further configured to replace display of (e.g., with the display control unit  1310 ) the mailbox view with a message view that corresponds to the message associated with the respective representation. In response to detecting the second user input selecting the respective representation, and in accordance with a determination that respective representation corresponds to a conversation, the processing unit  1308  is further configured to replace display of (e.g., with the display control unit  1310 ) the mailbox view with the conversation view that corresponds to the conversation associated with the respective representation, where the conversation includes the plurality of messages. 
     The operations in the information processing methods described above are, optionally implemented by running one or more functional modules in information processing apparatus such as general purpose processors (e.g., as described above with respect to  FIGS. 1A and 3 ) or application specific chips. 
     The operations described above with reference to  FIGS. 8A-8C, 9A-9C, 10A-10C  are, optionally, implemented by components depicted in  FIGS. 1A-1B  or  FIGS. 11-13 . For example, the detecting operation  816 , the detecting operation  906 , and the detecting operation  1010  are, optionally, implemented by event sorter  170 , event recognizer  180 , and event handler  190 . Event monitor  171  in event sorter  170  detects a contact on touch-sensitive display  112 , and event dispatcher module  174  delivers the event information to application  136 - 1 . A respective event recognizer  180  of application  136 - 1  compares the event information to respective event definitions  186 , and determines whether a first contact at a first location on the touch-sensitive surface (or whether rotation of the device) corresponds to a predefined event or sub-event, such as selection of an object on a user interface, or rotation of the device from one orientation to another. When a respective predefined event or sub-event is detected, event recognizer  180  activates an event handler  190  associated with the detection of the event or sub-event. Event handler  190  optionally uses or calls data updater  176  or object updater  177  to update the application internal state  192 . In some embodiments, event handler  190  accesses a respective GUI updater  178  to update what is displayed by the application. Similarly, it would be clear to a person having ordinary skill in the art how other processes can be implemented based on the components depicted in  FIGS. 1A-1B . 
     The foregoing description, for purpose of explanation, has been described with reference to specific embodiments. However, the illustrative discussions above are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the invention to the precise forms disclosed. Many modifications and variations are possible in view of the above teachings. The embodiments were chosen and described in order to best explain the principles of the invention and its practical applications, to thereby enable others skilled in the art to best use the invention and various described embodiments with various modifications as are suited to the particular use contemplated.
