Some implementations provide tactile interaction to a user during consumption of content. For instance, when a user accesses a content item on an electronic device having a display, the user may touch the display at a location corresponding to a first feature in a displayed image to generate a first type of tactile output. Moving the user's finger to a location of a second feature of the image may result in a second type of tactile output, different from the first. Additionally, in some implementations, a force of a touch input may be determined, and the tactile output may vary based on the amount of force of the touch input. Further, in some implementations, the tactile output may vary based on a time duration of a touch input.
