Abstract

An electronic device and a method are disclosed. The electronic device includes a housing, a display, a first communication circuit, a detection circuit, a memory, and a processor. The detection circuit is configured to detect a stylus pen when the stylus pen including a second communication circuit is located within a predetermined distance range from the display. The processor is operably connected to the display, the first communication circuit, the detection circuit, and the memory. The processor is configured to receive a signal containing unique identification information from the stylus pen. The processor is also configured to execute a first application program while receiving an input generated based on a touch by the stylus pen on the display or generated based on a movement of the stylus pen detected within the predetermined distance range. The processor is further configured to associate the unique identification information with the first application program.
