Abstract

The invention provides a method of controlling an electronic device to operate using a mobile terminal and the mobile terminal. Wherein the method comprises obtaining a confirmation message that a user has been authenticated sent by a biological recognition device, determining that the moving direction of a second fingerprint image on a touch screen of the mobile terminal is consistent with a predetermined direction; and sending an operation instruction to the electronic device so that the electronic device operates according to the operation instruction. As compared with the authentication methods of the prior art, in the method of controlling an electronic device to operate using a mobile terminal and the mobile terminal of the invention, the user authentication is more safe, and thus the course of mobile terminal controlling the electronic device to operate is more safe.
