Patent ID: 10489048

Abstract:
An electronic device and a control method of the electronic device are provided. The electronic device includes: a housing including a first surface facing in a first direction and a second surface facing in a second direction opposite the first direction; a touchscreen display disposed between the first surface and the second surface, and exposed through the first surface; a pressure sensor disposed between the first surface and the second surface, and configured to detect a pressure applied on the touchscreen display by an external object; at least one processor electrically connected to the touchscreen display, the pressure sensor, and a wireless communication circuit; and a memory electrically connected to the processor. The memory stores instructions which when executed by the processor cause the electronic device to perform operations comprising: displaying a user interface including at least one item on the touchscreen display; receiving an input for selecting at least one item through the touchscreen display; sensing a pressure applied, to and/or around, the at least one item on the display using the pressure sensor while the input is received; selecting a part of the user interface at least partially based on the input and the sensed pressure; and providing a visual effect on the user interface based at least in part on the sensed pressure wherein the selected part of the user interface is displayed to appear concave compared with the remaining part of the user interface.
