An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes at least one communication module, and a processor. The processor may be configured to select an external device supporting a directional communication scheme. The processor may be configured to acquire a first identifier of the selected external device through at least one of the at least one communication module. The processor may be configured to configure action information and authentication information. The processor may be configured to transmit authentication data generated based on the first identifier, the action information, and the authentication information to the external device through at least one of the at least one communication module.

Electronic device for transmitting data using short-range wireless communication and operating method thereof

An electronic device according to various embodiments of the present invention comprises: a display; a communication circuit; a processor electrically connected with the display and the communication circuit; and a memory electrically connected with the processor, wherein when instructions, which can be included by the memory, are executed, the processor acquires message data received through a communication circuit and confirms attribute information included in the message data and, resulting from the confirmation, the display displays first text data for a first time if the text data included in the message data is first text data inputted from a touch screen of an external electronic device, and the display displays second text data for a second time different from the first time if the text data included in the message data is second text data converted from voice data.

Electronic device, and message data output method of electronic device

According to various embodiments of the disclosure, an electronic device and a method of executing a function of the electronic device comprise at least one communication circuit, a speaker, a microphone, at least one processor operatively connected with the communication circuit, the speaker, and the microphone, and a memory operatively connected with the at least one processor, wherein the memory stores instructions which, when executed by the at least one processor cause the electronic device to: perform a call with a first external electronic device through the communication circuit, activate a voice-based intelligent service while the call is performed, identify a voice input through the microphone while the call is performed, and transmit data associated with the voice input to an external server through the communication circuit at least in part for automatic speech recognition (ASR) and/or natural language understanding (NLU).

Electronic device and method of executing function of electronic device

Disclosed are a method for recognizing a rotation of a rotating body and an electronic device for processing the same. The electronic device may include a housing; a rotatable input configured to be mounted on a part of the housing; a display configured to be exposed out of a part of the housing; a memory; and a processor electrically connected to the memory, the input, and the display, wherein the memory may store instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to display, on the display, at least one part of a user interface including a first point capable of scrolling an object and/or a number in proportion to a rotation of the input; to at least partially respond to a first input from the input or the display and to display, on the display, a second point spaced by a predetermined distance or angle from the first point; and to move the object to the second point or to display, on the display, a corresponding number at the second point, in response to the rotation of the input in a state of displaying the second point.

Method for recognizing rotation of rotating body and electronic device for processing the same

An electronic device includes a wireless communication circuit, a light emitting device, and a control circuit. The wireless communication circuit establishes wireless communication with a first external device. The light emitting device emits light. The control circuit shares information on a location of the electronic device with the first external device. The control circuit also receives a first signal from the first external device via the wireless communication circuit, and, in response to the first signal, the light emitting device emits light according to a selected flashing pattern which indicates at least a part of the location of the electronic device.

Electronic device including light emitting device and operating method thereof

An electronic device, comprising: a rotary input module; a display; a memory; and at least one processor operatively coupled to the memory, configured to: detect a rotary input via the rotary input module; generate second information associated a first information that is displayed on the display; display the first information and the second information on the display; and change at least some of the first information and the second information based on the rotary input, and displaying the same.

Apparatus and method for providing additional information according to rotary input

The present disclosure provides a wearable device that can be attached to or detached from a user. The wearable device includes a first display having a first size, a processor, and a memory storing instructions thereon that, when executed, allow the processor to display, through the first display, a user interface for obtaining a text input, transmit, to an external device that includes a second display having a second size, a request for obtaining the text input through the external device, receive, from the external device, input information related to the text input obtained through the external device, and display the received input information in the user interface.

Method for processing inputs between devices and electronic device thereof

A method for providing a notification and/or an electronic device thereof are provided. The electronic device may include an output device, a communication circuitry, and a processor. The processor may be configured to receive a first notification from a first external electronic device via the communication circuitry, receive a second notification from a second external electronic device via the communication circuitry, determine whether the first notification and the second notification match, and when the first notification and the second notification match each other, output an output signal corresponding to a selected notification among the first notification and the second notification through the output device and/or an external output device operatively coupled to the electronic device, and disregard a non-selected notification among the first notification and the second notification.
