    Abstract: An apparatus and method for controlling lock-screen output are provided. The electronic device includes a touch screen display, a processor electrically connected to the display, and a memory electrically connected to the processor. The memory stores instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to display a first screen comprising sets of objects to the display, configure, in response to a first touch input for selecting an object displayed on the first screen, at least one object included in a set of objects related to the selected object as at least one lock object for releasing a lock screen, and display a second screen configured with the at least one lock object. In addition, various embodiments identified in the specification are enabled.

    Abstract: An electronic device includes a housing, a display, a touch sensor sensing a touch of an external object, a force sensor sensing pressure by the touch, and a processor that is electrically connected with the display. The touch sensor, the force sensor and a memory are electrically connected with the processor. The memory stores instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to activate at least part of the force sensor while the display is turned off, or while the display operates in a low-power mode, to perform a first function if pressure of a first level by the touch is sensed in the at least part of the force sensor. The processor also performs a second function associated with the first function if pressure of a second level by the touch is sensed in the force sensor while the first function is performed.
