The method includes generating a first content corresponding to a user input applied to content via the electronic device, and displaying a floating user interface (UI), which displays first scrap information on the first content, on a screen of the electronic device.

Method of processing content and electronic device thereof

An apparatus and method of editing text in a mobile terminal include a display unit, configured to display a text display area, a touch sensitive keypad display area, at least one text character in the text display area, and a cursor in the text display area; and at least one processor, configured to detect a first gesture in a touch input in the touch sensitive keypad display area, and control moving, upon detecting the first gesture, the cursor in the text display area, according to the touch input in the touch sensitive keypad display area. The first gesture includes a touch of a point in the touch sensitive keypad display area where no key is displayed.

Apparatus and method for cursor control and text selection and editing based on gesture-based touch inputs received in a virtual keyboard display area

An apparatus and a method for providing a messenger service in an electronic device are provided. In the method, the messenger service with at least one counterpart electronic device is provided. First application setting information is determined during the messenger service. The first application setting information is transmitted to the at least one counterpart electronic device through the messenger service.

Method for providing messenger service and electronic device thereof

An electronic device for recording and displaying memo objects and method executing the same are disclosed herein. The electronic devices includes a display and a processor. The processor is configured to execute steps implementing the method, including receive a memo object to a screen mode or a visual object presently displayed on the display when a memo input mode is active, store an association between the memo object and the presently displayed screen mode or visual object, and display the memo object on a memo layer disposed over the screen mode or visual object.

Method for displaying and electronic device thereof

An electronic device is provided including a battery and a controller configured to: measure a present level of the battery; and adjust an operation of a hardware component of the electronic device based on the present level of the battery in order to maintain a reference battery level, wherein the reference battery level is associated with a specified time period in which the electronic device is required to remain operational.

Method and apparatus for power management

A method of controlling a function of an electronic device is provided. The method includes determining whether a human body of a user is in contact with the electronic device, and performing a corresponding function if the human body of the user is in contact with the electronic device. The determination of whether the human body of the user is in contact with the electronic device is based at least in part on whether an image pattern of the human body of the user, which is detected by the image sensor, a temperature pattern of the electronic device, which is detected by the temperature sensor, and a resistance pattern of the human body of the user, which is detected by the body conductivity sensor, respectively correspond to a reference image pattern, a reference temperature pattern, and a reference resistance pattern.

Method for controlling function and electronic device thereof

An apparatus and method for providing a contact address based on context information and an indication of a recommended contact and a preferred communication channel for reaching the recommended contact. The indication is based on pre-stored context information that matches the current context information. The communication channel may be one of a social networking service (SNS), a mobile phone number, a home phone number, a business phone number, a short message services (SMS), and a multimedia message service (MMS). The method may include: detecting, by an electronic device, current context information of the electronic device; comparing the current context information with prestored context information; and outputting an indication of a recommended contact and a preferred communication channel for reaching the recommended contact, wherein the indication is output based on the prestored context information matching the current context information.

Method and apparatus for providing a contact address

A method for controlling an electronic device is provided, including displaying at least one portion of a screen displayed on a first display unit of a first electronic device on a second display unit of a second electronic device, receiving an input related to a first position in the second display unit; identifying a type of an object corresponding to the first position, and executing at least one function based on the type of the object.

Method, apparatus, and medium for executing a function related to information displayed on an external device

An apparatus and a method for editing an object in an electronic device are provided. In the method, when a first event occurs depending on detected touch information of at least one object among a plurality of objects displayed on a display unit, a movement interval is determined depending on a characteristic of the first event. A position of the at least one object is changed depending on a movement interval corresponding to the characteristic of the first event.
