Abstract
An electronic device with a fingerprint sensing function and a method for calling an application are provided. The electronic device includes a fingerprint sensing region, a fingerprint sensing module and a control module. The fingerprint sensing module is configured to sense fingerprint input information input in the fingerprint sensing region. The control module is configured to recognize current state of the electronic device, provide a first driving signal to the fingerprint sensing module if the electronic device is in one of N preset states, to drive the fingerprint sensing module to sense fingerprint, receive fingerprint input information fed back by the fingerprint sensing module, judge whether the fingerprint input information is valid, and determine whether to call a corresponding application based on judgment result, where N is a positive integer. Response speed of the provided electronic device in calling applications is fast and high safety is ensured.
