An electronic device may include: a communication module; a processor operatively connected to the communication module; and a memory operatively connected to the processor and configured to store computer program code. The computer program code, when executed, enables the processor to: upon detection of execution of a first operation of a first Internet of Things (IoT) device, obtain, from the memory, a first instruction to operate the first IoT device in a second operation; transmit the first instruction to the first IoT device to operate the first IoT device in the second operation; and monitor execution of the second operation by the first IoT device.

Method for sharing instructions for IoT apparatuses, and electronic device

An electronic device according to various embodiments includes a display, a camera module, and at least one processor, wherein the at least one processor may be set to: display one or more real objects and one or more virtual objects through the display; receive a first input for selecting any one object from among the objects, and then receive a second input related to the picked object; analyze information about grouped objects when a third input is received for grouping the objects selected by repeating the first input and the second input; and provide a function extracted on the basis of analyzing the information about the grouped objects, when a fourth input related to the grouped objects is received.

Electronic device for performing various functions in augmented reality environment, and operation method for same

An electronic device is provided and includes a communication circuit, a memory, and a processor connected to the communication circuit and the memory. The memory may store instructions causing, upon being executed, the processor to store a usage history in the memory, the usage history collected from a plurality of user devices registered in a user device group through the communication circuit, to receive device information indicating functions of a first user device in the user device group from the first user device or a second user device in the user device group through the communication circuit, to select a function to be recommended to a user from among the functions of the first user device, based on at least the usage history, to generate a customized manual to allow the user to use the recommended function of the first user device, and to transmit, to the first user device or the second user device through the communication circuit, the customized manual or recommendation information for recommending the customized manual to the user.

Electronic device for supporting customized manual

Various embodiments of the disclosure relate to an electronic device for providing a user interface for changing a display mode related to displaying of a virtual reality object, and an operating method thereof. An electronic device according to various embodiments of the disclosure may include a display, a processor operatively coupled to the display, a memory operatively coupled to the processor. The memory may store instructions which, when executed, cause the processor to control the electronic device to: display at least one virtual object in a first display mode in which the at least one virtual object is displayed at a fixed position of the screen irrespective of a Point Of View (POV) of the user by superimposing the at least one virtual object on a real object image corresponding to at least one real object, receive a first input for changing the display mode of the at least one virtual object, and display the at least one virtual object in a second display mode in which a screen display position changes depending on the POV of the user in response to receiving the first input.

Electronic device for providing augmented reality user interface and operating method thereof

Various embodiments of the present invention relate to an electronic device for executing a recommended application corresponding to a user input by using the user input, and an operating method thereof. An electronic device according to various embodiments of the present invention may comprise: an input module configured to receive a user input; a processor operatively connected to the input module; and a memory operatively connected to the processor, wherein the memory stores instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to: receive a first input including a query through the input module; determine a recommended application matching the query among multiple applications installed in the electronic device; output an identification message for execution of the recommended application; receive a second input corresponding to the identification message; and execute the recommended application in response to reception of the second input.

Electronic device for executing recommended application and operating method thereof

Disclosed is an electronic device including a communication interface connecting to an external device, an input interface receiving a user input, a memory storing at least one application, a display displaying an image, and a processor electrically connected to the communication interface, the input interface, the memory, and the display. The processor displays a user interface (UI) of a first application for transmitting or receiving a message stored in the memory, on a display, receives a user input for transmitting an emoji, to which a specified function is set, to an external electronic device through the input interface, obtains information necessary to perform the specified function, using identification information of the external electronic device, includes the obtained information in the emoji such that the external electronic device performs the specified function through the emoji, displays the emoji on the UI displayed on the display, and transmits the emoji to the external electronic device through the communication interface. Other various embodiments as understood from the specification are also possible.

Electronic device for transmitting and receiving message including emoji and method for controlling electronic device

An electronic device includes a communication interface, an input interface, a memory storing a message application for transmitting/receiving a message that includes a main message, a display, and a processor. The processor sets a first interaction for displaying a first hidden message on the main message, the first interaction including information about at least one of a type, an input position, an input frequency, an input time, and an input sequence of a user input used to display the first hidden message, generates the message to include the main message and the first hidden message, the message being configured such that the first hidden message is displayed on the main message when the user input used to display the first hidden message and corresponding to the set first interaction is received, and transmits the generated message to an external device through the communication interface.
