Abstract:
An electronic device for acquiring biometric information may include a display, and a fingerprint sensor configured to acquire fingerprint data through at least a partial display region of the display. A processor may execute a first application in which a graphical object is displayed, for controlling a designated function other than a fingerprint registration function. A user input on the graphical object may be used to collect fingerprint information, which is used as part of a fingerprint registration function.
Abstract:
A method for calculating a formula included in text in an electronic device includes detecting the text, detecting at least one formula included in the detected text, calculating at least the one formula, and displaying the calculated result. An apparatus for implementing the method includes at least one processor, at least one memory, and at least one program which is stored in at least the one memory and is configured to be executable by at least the one processor. The at least one program detects input text, detects at least one formula included in the detected text, calculates at least the one formula, and displays the calculated result.
Abstract:
Display apparatus and method of an electronic device are provided. The electronic device includes a display, and a processor. The processor fetches a display region for displaying a screen when an application is executed, and fetches and displays a plurality of screens in the fetched display region.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for managing an application are provided. A method of managing an electronic device includes deleting an application, detecting entering of an icon edit mode, and displaying an icon of the deleted application when in the icon edit mode.
Abstract:
A method for outputting accompanying data received together with a message. The method can determine whether accompanying data is included in at least one received message and, when the accompanying data is included, display a notification message that includes notification information about the accompanying data and, when the notification information is chosen, directly output the accompanying data.
Abstract:
An electronic device includes at least one communication circuit, and a processor electrically connected with the at least one communication circuit. The processor may be configured to select an external electronic device in response to a user input, broadcast, through the at least one communication circuit using a first protocol, a connection request for a second protocol-based communication with the external electronic device, receive a response to the connection request from the external electronic device through the at least one communication circuit, and perform communication with the external electronic device through the at least one communication circuit using a second protocol, based on connection information about the external electronic device for the second protocol-based communication, the connection information being contained in the response.
Abstract:
A method and an electronic device for controlling a virtual keypad are provided. The method for displaying the virtual keypad of the electronic device includes detecting execution of an application allowing text input, detecting at least one touch subject within a threshold distance of a touch screen, and when detecting at least one touch subject within the threshold distance of the touch screen, displaying a virtual keypad.
Abstract:
A method of operating an electronic device is provided. The method of operating an electronic device includes generating at least one second moving picture representing a reaction to a first moving picture of a user of the electronic device based on a visual point of the first moving picture using an image sensor included in the electronic device while playing the first moving picture captured or received from a server. The method also includes generating a third moving picture in which at least a portion of the second moving picture is coupled to a partial area of the first moving picture at a corresponding visual point of the first moving picture.
Abstract:
A method of providing a call log in an electronic device is provided. The method includes displaying a content including call identifier information, storing information corresponding to the call identifier information from the content, and using the stored information for at least one of a call log and a contact list.
Abstract:
An electronic device according to various embodiments of the present invention comprises: a touch sensor; a fingerprint sensor that is formed in at least a partial area of the touch sensor and is capable of obtaining fingerprint information about an external object; and a processor, wherein the processor may be configured to: sense the movement of the external object by using the touch sensor while sensing the fingerprint information; when the movement satisfies a first designated condition, perform authentication on the external object by using the fingerprint information; and when the movement satisfies a second designated condition, stop the operation of sensing the fingerprint information and provide information related to the movement.
