Device, Method, and Graphical User Interface for Managing Data Stored on a Device

Abstract

In response to detecting a storage management input, a device displays a storage management user interface including a first storage management affordance that is associated with a first storage management operation and a second storage management affordance that is associated with a second storage management operation. While displaying the storage management user interface, the device detects a selection input selecting the first storage management affordance. In response to detecting the selection input, the device initiates a process for performing the first storage management operation. After initiating the process for performing the first storage management operation, the device displays the storage management user interface including the second storage management affordance and a third storage management affordance that is associated with a third storage management operation that is different from the first storage management operation and the second storage management operation.
