14. An electronic device comprising:
a fingerprint sensor for sensing a fingerprint when a display device is touched; and
a processor for displaying at least one first fingerprint recognition icon and at least one second fingerprint recognition icon on the display device while the display device is in a lock state and determining whether a touch input has been received from the at least one first fingerprint recognition icon or the at least one second fingerprint recognition icon,
when it is determined that the touch input has been received from the at least one first fingerprint recognition icon, the processor performs a fingerprint authentication process to determine whether fingerprint information of the touch input is authentic and releases the lock state of the display device when it is determined the fingerprint information is authentic; and
when it is determined that the touch input has been received from the at least one second fingerprint recognition icon, the processor maintains the lock state without performing the fingerprint authentication process.
