Abstract:
An electronic device and method of controlling an electronic device are provided. The electronic device includes a communication module; a processor; and a memory that stores instructions to instruct the processor to install a first application operating only in a first environment, install a second application selectively operating in at least one of the first environment and a second environment, grant access to the first application to first data, the first data being generated while the second application operates in the first environment, deny access to the first application to second data, the second data being generated while the second application operates in the second environment, grant access to the second application to third data, the third data being generated while the first application operates in the first environment, and allocate the second application to at least the second environment without a user's input when the second application is installed.
Abstract:
A device and method for reproducing contents in an electronic device connected through a network are provided. The electronic device includes a communication unit for connecting a network to a second electronic device, an information collection module, which collects information necessary for determining a location of the second electronic device, and at least one processor, which determines the location of the second electronic device, based on the information collected by the information collection module, defines contents to reproduce in the second electronic device, based on the location, and provides the contents to the second electronic device.
Abstract:
An electronic device manages a plurality of microphones comprising a first microphone unit installed in a front side of the electronic device, a second microphone unit installed in a back side of the electronic device and a third microphone unit installed at a position within the electronic device. At least one sensor installed in the electronic device senses a usage condition of the electronic device comprising a physical orientation of the electronic device relative to a plane. A processor selectively operates at least two of the first, second and third microphone units in response to the sensed usage condition of the electronic device.
Abstract:
A electronic device and a control method of the electronic device are provided. A control method includes providing a first environment in which at least one application can operate and a second environment having an operation environment at least partially different from the first environment; determining whether a first application among the at least one application is to be executed in the second environment, when an execution command of the first application is acquired; and executing the first application in the second environment, when it is determined that the first application is to be executed in the second environment.

Abstract:
A microphone module for an electronic device is provided. The microphone module includes a window having at least one microphone hole in a part of an edge of the window, a microphone installed in a position corresponding to the microphone hole of the window, and a case frame coupled with the window and forming an appearance of the electronic device. The microphone module receives an external voice through the microphone hole of the window.
