In some embodiments, prior to detecting the second input, the device concurrently displays a control region for controlling the application along with displaying the respective content in the content region and displaying the first text in the application input field. In response to detecting the second input, the device displays (619) movement of the first text toward the device status region, and ceasing to display the control region (e.g., ceasing to display the control region by displaying movement of the control region off of the display). For example, a navigation bar slides off of the display as the first text merges into the device status region so as to increase the amount of the display that is displaying an unobscured view of the content in the content region. In some embodiments, the movement of the first text toward the device status region and/or the movement of the control region off of the display is direct manipulation where the animation of the movement progresses proportional to movement of a contact on a touchscreen display (e.g., movement of the text and control region corresponds 1:1 to movement of the contact on the touchscreen display). In some embodiments, the movement of the first text toward the device status region is movement in a first direction that corresponds to movement of the contact on the touchscreen display and the movement of the control region off of the display is movement in a second direction that is opposite to the movement of the contact on the touchscreen display. For example, control bar 512 is concurrently displayed with application input field 508 and text 528, as shown in
