An electronic device includes a communication circuit to communicate with at least one wearable device, and at least one processor electrically connected with the communication circuit. The at least one processor is configured to obtain position information on a position on which the at least one wearable device is placed on a user's body, and to transmit a control signal to the at least one wearable device through the communication circuit such that, when an output of a haptic pattern specified based on a function is requested, the at least one wearable device outputs a haptic feedback corresponding to the position information and the specified haptic pattern.

Apparatus and method for providing haptic feedback through wearable device

Disclosed is an electronic device including: a communication interface; at least one first vibration device; and a processor, wherein the processor is configured to determine vibration information including a first time for vibrating the at least one first vibration device and a second time for vibrating at least one second vibration device included in an external device to which the electronic device is mounted, based at least partially on information included in content to be outputted by the electronic device, transmit, through the communication interface, at least part of the vibration information to the external device such that the external device vibrates the at least one second vibration device based at least partially on the second time, and control the at least one first vibration device to vibrate based at least partially on the first time while the content is outputted.

Method of providing vibration and electronic device for supporting same

An electronic device includes a display, a memory, and a processor, and the processor displays, on the display, a folder icon that includes execution icons of a plurality of applications and, in response to a first user input selecting the folder icon, displays a user interface for collectively controlling notifications for the plurality of applications.

Electronic device for collective control of notifications of applications in folders

An electronic device includes a touch sensitive display, and a processor electrically connected with the touch sensitive display. The processor is configured to sense a first touch and a second touch on the touch sensitive display, to display a first region expanding with respect to a location at which the first touch is made, on the touch sensitive display, to display a second region expanding with respect to a location at which the second touch is made, on the touch sensitive display, and to display a specified screen in the touch sensitive display if a sum of an area of the first region and an area of the second region exceeds a specified value.

Method and electronic device for outputting screen

A mode switching method and a mobile terminal operating with the mode switching method capable of switching an operation mode in accordance with a geographic placement attitude of the mobile terminal are disclosed. A mobile terminal includes a placement attitude detection unit for capturing a placement attitude of the mobile terminal; a placement attitude retrieval unit for comparing a captured geographic placement attitude with previously stored reference placement attitudes and outputting a mode signal corresponding to a reference placement attitude matching the captured placement attitude; a key arrangement configuration unit for reconfiguring a key arrangement according to the mode signal; a control unit for switching to an operation mode indicated by the mode signal and determining a rotation of a screen image; and a display unit for displaying the screen image at different angle adaptive to the placement attitude of the mobile terminal under the control of the control unit.
