Abstract
An electronic device is provided. The electronic apparatus includes a memory in which an application is stored, a display, a position sensor, and a processor which executes the application to acquire user position information corresponding to a user terminal position sensed by the position sensor, and control a display to provide a user interface (UI) for controlling a cycle time of a washing apparatus, the UI being provided on the basis of information related to the cycle time of the washing apparatus and the user position information.
Claims21
A washing machine comprising:
- a communication module connected with a server;
- memory, comprising one or more storage media, storing instructions;
- and
- at least one processor communicatively coupled to the communication module and the memory,
- wherein the instructions, when executed by the at least one processor individually or collectively, cause the washing machine to:
- based on receiving a command for performing a washing cycle selected in a user terminal from the server through the communication module, perform the washing cycle,
- through the communication module, receive a command for maintaining remote control selected in the user terminal from the server,
- maintain the washing machine in a remote controllable state after completing the washing cycle, and
- based on receiving a command for performing an additional cycle selected in the user terminal from the server while maintaining the washing machine in the remote controllable state through the communication module, perform the additional cycle, and
- wherein the additional cycle includes a rinsing course.
A method for controlling a washing machine, the method comprising:
- based on receiving a command for performing a washing cycle selected in a user terminal from a server, performing the washing cycle;
- receiving a command for maintaining remote control selected in the user terminal from the server;
- maintaining the washing machine in a remote controllable state after completing the washing cycle;
- and
- based on receiving a command for performing an additional cycle selected in the user terminal from the server while maintaining the washing machine in the remote controllable state, performing the additional cycle,
- wherein the additional cycle includes a rinsing course.
A method for controlling a user terminal for remotely controlling a washing machine, the method comprising:
- displaying a first user interface (UI) for selecting a washing cycle that the washing machine will perform;
- displaying a second UI for setting the washing machine in a remote controllable state after the washing machine completes the washing cycle;
- displaying a third UI for selecting an additional cycle that the washing machine will perform after completing the washing cycle;
- and
- based on a predetermined time passing after the washing cycle is completed, displaying a fourth UI notifying that collecting laundry from the washing machine is needed.
