An electronic device and method thereof are provided. The electronic device includes a communication circuit configured to communicate with an external device, a memory configured to store at least one card information, and a processor configured to electrically connect with the communication circuit and the memory. The processor is configured to receive a first request to verify whether it is possible to pay from the external device, send a response to the first request to the external device, and receive a second request, including transaction information associated with a payment, from the external device.

Electronic device and payment performance method using handoff thereof

A photographing method using an external electronic device and an electronic device supporting the same are provided. The electronic device includes a communication circuit, a memory configured to store contents including a first image in which a virtual reality is realized, and a processor electrically connected to the communication circuit and the memory. The processor is configured to identify a first external electronic device that is around the electronic device, determine whether the first external electronic device can photograph a subject by using the first external electronic device, transmit a command to the first external electronic device through the communication circuit in response to a determination result that the first external electronic device can photograph the subject by using the camera, receive a second image photographed based on the command from the first external electronic device, and generate a third image based on the first image and the second image.

Photographing method using external electronic device and electronic device supporting the same

An electronic device that interacts with a head mounted display (HMD) device is provided. The electronic device includes a communication interface, a memory, a display, and at least one processor electrically connected to the communication interface, the memory, and the display. The at least one processor is configured to receive an event signal related to sharing of contents with at least one external device or receive request information related to sharing of contents from the at least one external device through the communication interface, identify attribute information of the at least one external device, convert a format of some of one or more contents, which are stored in the memory, such that the format of one or more contents corresponds to the identified attribute information, and transmit the contents to the at least one external.

Method for sharing contents and electronic device supporting the same

A device operation method and an electronic device for supporting the same are provided. The method includes establishing a communication channel with an external device, receiving request information for requesting to activate a sensor of an electronic device in connection with executing a function of the external device, and activating the sensor in response to the request information.

Method for controlling apparatus according to request information, and apparatus supporting the method

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a transceiver that communicates with an external electronic device and at least one processor electrically connected with the transceiver. The processor is configured to obtain context information about an operation being performed at the electronic device, to generate identification information about a recommended operation associated with the operation being performed, based on the context information about the operation being performed and to send the identification information about the recommended operation to the external electronic device by using the transceiver.

Apparatus and method for providing handoff thereof

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a camera, a communication circuit configured to communicate with an external electronic device, and a processor. The processor is configured to obtain an image using the camera, verify location information of the image, obtain identification information of the external electronic device from the external electronic device if the location information of the image is not verified, and determine the location information of the image based on the identification information of the external electronic device.
