An electronic device, comprising: a memory configured to store first authenticated fingerprint information; a display; a fingerprint sensor operably coupled to the display; and a processor configured to: obtain first fingerprint information corresponding to a first input received using the fingerprint sensor, compare the first fingerprint information with the first authenticated fingerprint information during a first user authentication, perform a designated function when a match score of the comparison of the first fingerprint information with the first authenticated fingerprint information satisfies a first reference, temporarily store the first fingerprint information in the memory when the match score of the comparison of the first fingerprint information with the first authenticated fingerprint information does not satisfy the first reference and satisfies a second reference, obtain second fingerprint information corresponding to a second input during a second user authentication, compare the second fingerprint information with the first authenticated fingerprint information during the second user authentication, determine whether an input time interval between the first input and the second input is within a designated time interval, store the temporarily stored first fingerprint information as second authenticated fingerprint information when the match score of the comparison of the second fingerprint information with the first authenticated fingerprint information satisfies the first reference and when the input time interval is within the designated time interval, and perform the designated function when the match score of the comparison of the second fingerprint information with the first authenticated fingerprint information satisfies the first reference. a memory configured to store first authenticated fingerprint information;
