Electronic device for generating augmented reality emoji and method thereof

A method of an electronic device comprising:

• displaying a first augmented reality (AR) emoji on a window configured to receive at least one first stroke input;
• receiving the at least one first stroke input on the window;
• displaying a second AR emoji, based at least partially on a position and a shape of the at least one first stroke input;
• and
• displaying at least one of a sticker image or a background image based on the shape of the received at least one first stroke input on the window.

An electronic device comprising:

• a housing;
• a touchscreen display viewable through a portion of the housing;
• a wireless communication circuit disposed within the housing, and configured to communicate with an external server;
• at least one processor disposed within the housing and operatively connected with the display and the wireless communication circuit;
• and
• a memory disposed within the housing and operatively connected with the at least one processor,
• wherein the memory stores instructions that, when executed, cause the at least one processor to perform a plurality of operations comprising:
• displaying a first augmented reality (AR) emoji capable of receiving at least one first stroke input, through the display;
• receiving the at least one first stroke input while displaying the first AR emoji on a window;
• transmitting information about the at least one first stroke input to the external server, through the wireless communication circuit;
• receiving information about a second AR emoji indicating a gesture corresponding to the at least one first stroke input from the external server, through the wireless communication circuit;
• displaying the second AR emoji, through the display, based at least partially on information about the received second AR emoji;
• receiving a first user input for transmitting the second AR emoji while the second AR emoji is displayed;
• generating a first image file including the second AR emoji in response to the received first user input;
• and
• transmitting the generated first image file to an external electronic device, through the wireless communication circuit.
