Abstract
An electronic device and a method for processing an image by the electronic device according to various embodiments of the present invention are provided. The method may comprise: generating password information for a first image using security information of a user; changing the first image to a second image using the generated password information; and transmitting the second image and the password information in response to a transmission request of the first image. Various other embodiments may be available.
Claims15
An electronic device comprising:
- a display;
- a processor;
- and
- a memory operatively coupled to the processor,
- wherein the memory stores instructions executable by the processor to cause the electronic device to:
- generate code information for a first image using security information of a user,
- generate a second image based on the first image using the generated code information, the second image distorting an entirety of the first image,
- transmit the second image and the code information in response to a request to transmit the first image,
- generate a thumbnail of the first image including the distorting of the entirety of the first image,
- display a gallery divided in multiple sub-regions including a safe-lock sub-region for encoded images,
- after generating the image and prior to transmission of the second image, overlay on the thumbnail a first icon indicating that encoding has been performed on the first image, and
- after transmitting the second image, changing the overlay on the thumbnail from the first icon to a second icon indicating that the second image is transmitted.

A method for an electronic device, comprising:
- generating, by a processor, code information for a first image using security information of a user;
- generating a second image based on the first image using the generated code information, the second image distorting an entirety of the first image;
- transmitting, by communication circuitry, the second image and the code information to an external electronic device in response to a request to transmit the first image;
- generating a thumbnail of the first image including the distorting of the entirety of the first image;
- displaying a gallery divided in multiple sub-regions including a safe-lock sub-region for encoded images;
- after generating the image and prior to transmission of the second image, overlaying on the thumbnail a first icon indicating that encoding has been performed on the first image;
- and
- after transmitting the second image, changing the overlay on the thumbnail from the first icon to a second icon indicating that the second image is transmitted.
