Abstract:
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a touch sensor, a fingerprint sensor, a display, and a processor. The display includes a display region having a fingerprint sensing region. The processor is configured to detect a touch input for the fingerprint sensing region by using the touch sensor, and to acquire touch information, corresponding to the touch input, on the display. In addition, the processor is configured to determine a graphic object for guiding acquisition of a user's fingerprint corresponding to the touch input through the fingerprint sensing region, based at least on the touch information. Also, the processor is configured to display the graphic object through the fingerprint sensing region of the display or proximity thereof.
