First Claim
1. A device comprising:
- a user input unit configured to receive a user input from a user;
an output unit configured to output information, based on the user input; and
a controller configured to;
determine, when the user input is not received, whether an out-focus status in which the user does not use the device has started,determine, when it is determined that the out-focus status has started, a period in which the out-focus status is to be maintained based on information about a probability of the out-focus status according to a context of the device, andstop, when the period in which the out-focus status is to be maintained is equal to or greater than a reference time period, an application executed in the device.
