In this case, after inputting the message, the user can determine the usage form of the inputted message such as e-mail, memo, social network service, text messaging service, multimedia message service and the like.
Emoticon is a combination of Emotion and Icon. It is a combination of letters, symbols, and numbers to express various emotions.
Meanwhile, as the use of social network services, chat services, and message services is increasing, emoticons can be displayed in a variety of forms such as a picture, a character, an animation, etc., And their types and numbers are increasing.
However, there are inconveniences that the user has to go through many steps in order to input such emoticons. The number of users using various SNSs is increasing, and the use of emoticons that express emotions rather than simple text transmission is increasing, but the method of selecting and transmitting emoticons is not simple.
FIG. 5 shows an example of a process of transmitting emoticons while using a predetermined social network service.
Referring to FIG. 5, when the user desires to input an emoticon while executing a social network service, a message service, or the like, the user must first select the
On the other hand, emoticons that can be input are classified according to predetermined criteria such as emoticon provider, emotion, and status, and can help the user. In the example of FIG. 5, the emoticons are classified into a plurality of groups, and the user can select a predetermined emoticon group through the

Alternatively, the emoticon determined according to the embodiment may be automatically transmitted without the user's instruction.
Meanwhile, the
In addition, the transmitting step (S470) may further transmit data for generating a vibration effect and a sound effect associated with the emoticon
The receiving terminal can not only display the emoticons based on data received directly via the service provider, but also can output vibration or audio effects.
According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of operating a mobile terminal, the method comprising: displaying a corresponding emoticon when a plurality of emoticons corresponding to a user's motion input are present; And selecting at least one of the displayed emoticons.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, the method may further include activating a sensing unit for sensing the motion input when the message input window is displayed or a related function such as a social network service or a message service is executed.
That is, in a normal use environment, at least some of the sensors in the sensing unit are turned off, only the minimum operation is performed, and when necessary, the sensors and functions necessary for sensing the motion input of the user are activated, Can be managed.
On the other hand, the
FIGS. 7A and 11B show various examples of the emoticon transmitted after being discriminated according to the motion input and the motion input according to the embodiment of the present invention.
The emoticon is an image, a letter, a number, a symbol, or a combination thereof expressing emotions, so that a motion representing a user's emotions can be matched.
