An electronic device includes a sensor, a processor, and a memory configured to store at least one instruction executed by the processor, wherein the processor is configured to collect activity information on a user related to the electronic device by using the sensor, the collecting of the activity information including creating an amount of activity of the user for a specific goal or an activity engagement level for the specific goal by using the activity information, adjust at least one of an output time point, an output cycle, the number of outputs, or the output contents of the activity guide information for the user to an activity guide parameter at least based on the amount of activity or the activity engagement level, and output the activity guide information created by using the adjusted activity guide parameter through an output device operatively connected to the processor.

Method for providing action guide information and electronic device supporting method

An electronic device includes a memory that stores one or more medical policies and a processor. The processor is configured to obtain a request for execution of an application that provides a medical service, to decide a medical policy, which corresponds to a location of the electronic device, from among the one or more medical policies, and to selectively provide at least one function of the application based on a medical service performing method, which is determined based at least on the medical policy, from among one or more medical service performing methods.

Method for providing medical service and electronic device supporting the same

An electronic device comprising: a memory; and one or more processors configured to: assign a first positioning role to the electronic device and a second positioning role to a counterpart device, the counterpart device and the electronic device being part of a communications network, obtain at least one of a location information and a supplemental location information based on the first positioning role and the second positioning role, and detect a location of the electronic device based on the at least one of the location information and supplemental location information.

Method and apparatus for device positioning

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a sensor related to measurement of biometric information, at least one module that performs a specific function, a memory that stores an instruction related to operations of the sensor and the module, and at least one processor electrically connected to the sensor, the at least one module, and the memory to execute the instruction. When acquiring an event related to initiation of the measurement of the biometric information, the processor may deactivate at least one function of a module, or execute an instruction such that the deactivation state is maintained or the operating mode (for example, a low power mode) of the electronic device is changed.

Method for measuring biometric information and electronic device performing the same

A method for controlling an electronic device and an apparatus therefor are provided. The method includes recognizing an access point located within a threshold range in which signals are transmittable/receivable from the electronic device, in order to connect the electronic device to an external network, determining whether the electronic device is currently moved in relation to the electronic device based on information related to at least one of the access point and the external network, and deciding on whether to prevent connection of the electronic device to the access point based on a result of the determining whether the access point is currently moved in relation to the electronic device.

Communication method and apparatus supporting selective communication services

The present invention relates to a video communication terminal and a method of providing road guidance using the same. More specifically, the present invention provides a road guidance service to a user during video communication by transmitting the user's location information to a user of a correspondent video communication terminal and receiving road guidance information from the correspondent video communication terminal. The method of road guidance includes requesting, by a first video communication terminal road guidance, to a second video communication terminal through video communication, transmitting, if the first video communication terminal receives a signal accepting to provide the road guidance from the second video communication terminal, a location value of the first video communication terminal to the second video communication terminal and displaying a map including the location of the first video communication terminal in the second video communication terminal. A user of the video communication terminal may thereby receive precise road guidance, without an invasion of the user's privacy.
