Abstract

A mobile terminal and a method of controlling the mobile terminal are provided. The method includes storing a plurality of pieces of fingerprint information on at least one of a finger-by-finger basis, on a user-by-user basis, and a pattern-by-pattern basis; receiving a fingerprint-touch input through a display module capable of identifying a fingerprint; and if fingerprint information of the received fingerprint-touch input matches with one of the plurality of pieces of fingerprint information, performing a first control operation corresponding to the fingerprint information that matches with the fingerprint information of the received fingerprint-touch input. Therefore, it is possible to control various operations performed by the mobile terminal in response to a fingerprint-touch inputincluding fingerprint information.
