Provided is an electronic device which periodically transmits current location information to the location information service providing server in case of executing grouping applications, produces group including at least one member, selected by a user, of address list information received from the location information service providing server, requests messages requesting group participation to the member included in the group through the social network service providing server in case of generating predetermined events, and periodically receives the location information from the member accepting the group participation and displays the received location information on a map.

Electronic device, server, and control method and location information providing method for the electronic device

A first electronic device of the present invention comprises at least one communication circuitry, at least one display, at least one memory configured to store instructions, and at least one processor operatively coupled with the at least one communication circuitry and the at least one display. The processor is configured to (1) access to a first server for a navigation service through an application for the navigation service linked with a first account for accessing to a second server, (2) receive a user input through the application, (3) transmit, via the first server to a second electronic device of a second user that is authenticated through the application linked with a second account for accessing to the second server, a message, (4) periodically transmit, via the first server to the second electronic device, information, and (5) display a positional relationship between the two electronic devices over an electronic map.

A user interface apparatus for path search and a method thereof are disclosed. The interface apparatus for path search includes an interface unit configured to provide a first user interface comprising a plurality of image objects, the first user interface configured to implement sweeping transition between the image objects in at least one direction, wherein the interface unit displays an image associated with at least one place which is an object for path search on the image objects.

User interface apparatus for path search and method thereof

An electronic device of the present invention is enclosed. An electronic device in one embodiment of the present invention periodically transmits current location information to the location information service providing server in case of executing grouping applications, produces group including at least one member, selected by a user, of address list information received from the location information service providing server, requests messages requesting group participation to the member included in the group through the social network service providing server in case of generating predetermined events, and periodically receives the location information from the member accepting the group participation and displays the received location information on a map.

Provided is a location-based transaction processing method and system using a communication device. The location-based transaction processing method may include providing information on a display frequency for each area displayed on a map service to a storekeeper terminal, and creating a market POI indicating a virtual marketplace of a storekeeper at a location selected by the storekeeper terminal based on the display frequency.
