Abstract

An electronic device according to various embodiments comprises: an ear tip detachable from the electronic device; a microphone; a speaker; a sensor module comprising at least one sensor configured to sense information of the electronic device; memory storing a leaking sound profile representing the relationship between the magnitude of a signal leaking out of an object on which the electronic device is mounted among signals being output from the electronic device, and the frequency of the signals being output; and at least one processor, comprising processing circuitry, operatively connected with the microphone, the speaker, and the memory. At least one processor, individually and/or collectively, may be configured to: output first signals using the speaker; use the microphone to receive a second signal leaking out of the object on which the electronic device is mounted among the first signals; obtain signal characteristics representing the relationship between a magnitude of the second signal and the frequency of the second signal; determine, based on the information obtained from the sensor module, the leaking sound profile, and the comparison result of the signal characteristics, whether the electronic device is properly mounted and whether the ear tip has been properly selected; provide a mounting guide for the electronic device in response to determining that the electronic device is not properly mounted; and provide an ear tip selection guide in response to determining that the ear tip is not properly mounted.
