Abstract
An electronic device may include: a magnetic sensor configured to identify the intensity of a magnetic field; a wireless communication circuit; a processor; and memory electrically connected to the magnetic sensor, the wireless communication circuit, and the processor, and storing instructions. The processor may be configured so that the electronic device: uses the magnetic sensor to identify a plurality of intensities of the magnetic field during a first period; identifies, on the basis of the plurality of intensities, whether a reference intensity has been updated; identifies a first state of the electronic device when the reference intensity has been updated, the first state being identified on the basis of a comparison result between the latest intensity among the plurality of intensities and the updated reference intensity; and performs a function according to the identified first state. Various other embodiments identified through the specification are possible.
