An electronic device is provided and includes a camera configured to obtain an image, and a location information sensor configured to obtain (or sense) a current location of the electronic device. The electronic device further includes a direction information sensor configured to obtain (or sense) direction information about a direction in which the camera obtains the image and a memory configured to store information about the current location. A processor configured to operatively connect with the location information sensor, the direction information sensor, and the memory, may be further configured to obtain map information corresponding to the current location and arrange and display an orientation of the obtained map information with an orientation corresponding to the direction information. The processor may be configured to output the obtained map information together with a live video obtained by the camera.

Method for providing map information and electronic device for supporting the same

Disclosed is an operating method of an electronic device, including identifying a movement of the electronic device while displaying a screen of a first application in a first orientation, determining whether the electronic device is rotated by a predesignated angle, based on the movement, and in response to determining that the electronic device is rotated by the predesignated angle, displaying a screen of a second application in a second orientation different from the first orientation, wherein the second application corresponds to a rotation direction of the electronic device among a plurality of applications.

Electronic device and operating method thereof

An electronic device includes a camera; a display; at least one sensor; a communication unit configured to establish wireless communication with another electronic device using at least one protocol; and a processor configured to be functionally connected to the camera, the display, the at least one sensor, and the communication unit, wherein the processor is configured to perform a call with the other electronic device, detect a state change of the electronic device based on sensing information sensed by the at least one sensor while the call is maintaining, determine whether the state change of the electronic device corresponds to a user gesture for switching a call mode, and in response to determining that the state change or the electronic device corresponds to the user gesture for switching the call mode, switch the call mode.

Method and apparatus for providing image service

A method and an apparatus for displaying a soft key in an electronic device are provided. The electronic device includes a display, and a processor. The processor may control the display to display an execution screen of an application and a soft key, determine whether the execution screen of the application is changed, and control the display to change a graphic attribute of a soft key display region in response to changing the execution screen of the application.

Method for displaying soft key and electronic device thereof

Various examples of the present invention relate to a method and an apparatus for transmitting an image while performing a voice call between electronic devices. According to the various examples of the present invention, an electronic device comprises: a camera; a display; a communication unit configured so as to establish wireless communication with another electronic device by using at least one protocol; and a processor functionally connected to the camera, the display, and the communication unit, wherein the processor can be configured to: perform a voice call with another electronic device on the basis of a first network; detect a user input for performing a video call with the another electronic device while performing the voice call with the other electronic device; connect the video call on the basis of a second network and display a user interface related to the video call on the display, according to the user input; and display, through the user interface, the image acquired from the camera and transmit the image to be displayed through the second network to the other electronic device. Various examples are possible.

Disclosed is an operating method of an electronic device. The operating method includes acquiring phase information of the electronic device while a first application is executed; determining whether the electronic device is rotated based on the phase information; and executing a second application when the electronic device is rotated.

Method for providing map information and electronic device for supporing the same

An electronic device and a method for operating thereof are provided. The electronic device includes a touch screen having a display region of a first ratio, and a processor operatively coupled with the touch screen, and configured to perform a set function in response to a preset first touch input that occurs on another region, where content is not displayed, of the display region in a state where the content of a second ratio is displayed on a partial region of the display region.
